nfs: Fix memory leak of export_path
The try_location function is called within a loop by nfs_follow_referral. try_location calls nfs4_pathname_string to created the export_path. nfs4_pathname_string allocates the memory. export_path is stored in the nfs_fs_context/fs_context structure similarly as hostname and source. But whereas the ctx hostname and source are freed before assignment, export_path is not. So if there are multiple loops, the new export_path will overwrite the old without the old being freed. So call kfree for export_path. Signed-off-by: Tom Rix <trix@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@Netapp.com>
