[PATCH] btrfs: scrub: fix memory leak in scrub_raid56_parity_stripe()

From: Zilin Guan

Date: Tue Nov 04 2025 - 22:58:39 EST


scrub_raid56_parity_stripe() allocates a bio with bio_alloc(), but
fails to release it on some error paths, leading to a potential
memory leak.

Add the missing bio_put() calls to properly drop the bio reference
in those error cases.

Fixes: 1009254bf22a3 ("btrfs: scrub: use scrub_stripe to implement RAID56 P/Q scrub")
