btrfs: avoid extra memory allocation when copying free space cache

Browse source

At copy_free_space_cache(), we add a new entry to the block group's ctl
before we free the entry from the temporary ctl. Adding a new entry
requires the allocation of a new struct btrfs_free_space, so we can
avoid a temporary extra allocation by freeing the entry from the
temporary ctl before we add a new entry to the main ctl, which possibly
also reduces the chances for a memory allocation failure in case of very
high memory pressure. So just do that.
