btrfs: fix memory leaks in create_space_info() error paths

Browse source

[ Upstream commit a11224a016 ]

In create_space_info(), the 'space_info' object is allocated at the
beginning of the function. However, there are two error paths where the
function returns an error code without freeing the allocated memory:

1. When create_space_info_sub_group() fails in zoned mode.
2. When btrfs_sysfs_add_space_info_type() fails.

In both cases, 'space_info' has not yet been added to the
fs_info->space_info list, resulting in a memory leak. Fix this by
adding an error handling label to kfree(space_info) before returning.
