If fs_info->super_copy or fs_info->super_for_commit is NULL in
btrfs_get_tree_subvol(),
Please reorganize this sentence. It would be way more easier to read by just saying something like "If memory allocation failed for fs_info- >super_copy or fs_info->super_for_commit in btrfs_get_tree_subvol()".
the btrfs_check_leaked_roots() will get the
btrfs_root list entry using the fs_info->allocated_roots->next
which is NULL.

This should check if the fs_info->allocated_roots->next is NULL before
accessing it.

The check looks too adhoc to me.
It would be much easier to just call kvfree()
Of course with kfree() on the super_copy/super_for_commit before kvfree() on the fs_info.
in the error handling of super_copy/super_for_commit allocation, we do not and should not call btrfs_free_fs_info() before calling btrfs_init_fs_info().
Thanks,
Qu
