Detected by Coverity. The beginning of the function already filtered
out NULL objectContentList as invalid; more likely, the code was
trying to see if esxVI_RetrieveProperties modified *objectContentList.
* src/esx/esx_vi.c (esxVI_LookupObjectContentByType): Check
correct pointer.

Matthias, I'm not sure if this is the correct fix, because I don't
know how escVI_RetrieveProperties is supposed to work.
