btrfs: sysfs: don't leak memory when failing add fsid
commit e32773357d5cc271b1d23550b3ed026eb5c2a468 upstream. A failed call to kobject_init_and_add() must be followed by a call to kobject_put(). Currently in the error path when adding fs_devices we are missing this call. This could be fixed by calling btrfs_sysfs_remove_fsid() if btrfs_sysfs_add_fsid() returns an error or by adding a call to kobject_put() directly in btrfs_sysfs_add_fsid(). Here we choose the second option because it prevents the slightly unusual error path handling requirements of kobject from leaking out into btrfs functions. Add a call to kobject_put() in the error path of kobject_add_and_init(). This causes the release method to be called if kobject_init_and_add() fails. open_tree() is the function that calls btrfs_sysfs_add_fsid() and the error code in this function is already written with the assumption that the release method is called during the error path of open_tree() (as seen by the call to btrfs_sysfs_remove_fsid() under the fail_fsdev_sysfs label).
