[PATCH] pnfs/flexfiles: Fix memory leak in nfs4_ff_alloc_deviceid_node()
From: Zilin Guan
Date: Thu Dec 25 2025 - 02:41:34 EST
In nfs4_ff_alloc_deviceid_node(), if the allocation for ds_versions fails,
the function jumps to the out_scratch label without freeing the already
allocated dsaddrs list, leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by jumping to the out_err_drain_dsaddrs label, which properly
frees the dsaddrs list before cleaning up other resources.
