[PATCH V2] hfs: do not free node before using

From: Pan Bian
Date: Fri Nov 23 2018 - 21:11:27 EST


The function hfs_bmap_free frees node via hfs_bnode_put(node). However,
it then reads node->this when dumping error message on an error path,
which may result in a use-after-free bug. This patch frees node only
when it is never used.
