mm/huge_memory: Fix xarray node memory leak
If xas_split_alloc() fails to allocate the necessary nodes to complete the xarray entry split, it sets the xa_state to -ENOMEM, which xas_nomem() then interprets as "Please allocate more memory", not as "Please free any unnecessary memory" (which was the intended outcome). It's confusing to use xas_nomem() to free memory in this context, so call xas_destroy() instead. Reported-by: syzbot+9e27a75a8c24f3fe75c1@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Fixes: 6b24ca4a1a8d ("mm: Use multi-index entries in the page cache") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org>
