[PATCH v2 1/3] ntfs: free volume-wide resources on fill_super failure

[DaeMyung Kang <charsyam@gmail.com>]

ntfs_fill_super()'s err_out_now path frees only the volume struct via
kfree(vol), leaving several vol-owned allocations behind on every mount
failure:

  - vol->nls_map, loaded by ntfs_init_fs_context() via
    load_nls_default() (or replaced by an explicit nls= option in
    ntfs_parse_param()), is never unload_nls()'d.

  - vol->volume_label, allocated by load_system_files() through
    ntfs_ucstonls() once the $Volume name attribute has been parsed, is
    not released by load_system_files()'s own error labels nor by the
    fill_super() inline cleanup that only runs on d_make_root()
    failure.  Any later failure inside load_system_files() leaks it.

  - vol->lcn_empty_bits_per_page was kvfree()'d in
    unl_upcase_iput_tmp_ino_err_out_now without clearing the pointer,
    so it could not be folded into a single common cleanup.

Because the failure paths never call ntfs_volume_free() and never reach
the d_make_root() inline cleanup block (it sits above the label and is
jumped over by the load_system_files() / kvmalloc failure gotos), these
resources accumulate per failed mount attempt with no chance of
recovery short of unloading the module.  This is a silent leak: the
inodes loaded prior to failure remain hashed but generic_shutdown_super()
skips evict_inodes() when sb->s_root is unset, so no CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION
warning is emitted either.

Move the per-volume frees down to err_out_now and drop the
lcn_empty_bits_per_page kvfree() from the upper label so the cleanup is
performed exactly once on every failure path.  Using unconditional
kvfree() / kfree() / unload_nls() is safe because they all accept NULL
and the upper labels that previously freed nls_map (the d_make_root()
inline cleanup) already clear the pointer.
