NLM: Fix a memory leak in nlmsvc_testlock

From: Trond Myklebust
Date: Tue Oct 09 2007 - 11:04:29 EST


The recent fix for a circular lock dependency unfortunately introduced a
potential memory leak in the event where the call to nlmsvc_lookup_host
fails for some reason.

Thanks to Roel Kluin for spotting this.
