David Howells 9f35a33b8d KEYS: Fix a NULL pointer deref in the user-defined key type
Fix a NULL pointer deref in the user-defined key type whereby updating a
negative key into a fully instantiated key will cause an oops to occur
when the code attempts to free the non-existent old payload.

This results in an oops that looks something like the following:
