Comment (by asn):

 Patch looks good.

 One question. You seem to have removed setting `*next` to NULL there.

 {{{
    next = &sr_disk_state->SharedRandValues;
 -  *next = NULL;
    if (sr_state->previous_srv != NULL) {
 }}}

 Is there a reason for this removal?  The coverity report does not seem
 related.

 This pattern seems to also exist in other parts of the code (e.g. in
 `entry_guards_update_state()` and `circuit_build_times_update_state()`.
 Are we sure we don't need it?

 It might be useful in case our state does not contain previous or current
 SRVs.
