[PATCH] locks: fix a memory leak bug

From: Wenwen Wang
Date: Mon Aug 19 2019 - 19:47:42 EST


In __break_lease(), the file lock 'new_fl' is allocated in lease_alloc().
However, it is not deallocated in the following execution if
smp_load_acquire() fails, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue,
free 'new_fl' before returning the error.
