[PATCH 4.9 30/32] block: fix double-free in the failure path of cgwb_bdi_init()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

commit 5f478e4ea5c5560b4e40eb136991a09f9389f331 upstream.

When !CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK, bdi has single bdi_writeback_congested
at bdi->wb_congested.  cgwb_bdi_init() allocates it with kzalloc() and
doesn't do further initialization.  This usually works fine as the
reference count gets bumped to 1 by wb_init() and the put from
wb_exit() releases it.

However, when wb_init() fails, it puts the wb base ref automatically
freeing the wb and the explicit kfree() in cgwb_bdi_init() error path
ends up trying to free the same pointer the second time causing a
double-free.

Fix it by explicitly initilizing the refcnt to 1 and putting the base
ref from cgwb_bdi_destroy().
