If "caps.buf" is already NULL then it doesn't need to be freed or set to
NULL.

Looking at the code around, the right thing would be to just remove the
negation? This currently seems like a memory leak.

And quickly looking, the caps is pre-initialized but unused at this
point, so the whole if could just be removed, right?
