hfs_bnode_put() does not support deallocating a newly created btree
head node; therefore, regardless of whether hfsplus_bnode_find() succeeds
or fails, it cannot effectively reclaim the memory allocated for a newly
created head node.

When finding a head node, if the node is a newly created one, we can use
hfs_bnode_free() to reclaim its memory.

I need slightly more detailed and clear explanation how the issue has been
happened and why we need to fix it in a such way. Currently, I don't have the
complete picture how this happened. I am sure that you have the complete
picture. :) Could you please share what you have in your mind? :) Don't hide the
wisdom. ;)

Thanks,
Slava.
