If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jiasheng Jiang [ Upstream commit a11224a016d6d1d46a4d9b6573244448a80d4d7f ] 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.
