This appears to address the syzbot report "memory leak in nbd_add_socket"
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=08283193956ab772623e65242b3ed6d0e7c7d9ce
Can you please add:

That looks wrong.  The + 1 is just nbd_add_socket() preparing to append an entry
to the array.

Why not just check whether the pointer is NULL or not:

diff --git a/drivers/block/nbd.c b/drivers/block/nbd.c
index 43cff01a5a67..cb8e86174edb 100644
--- a/drivers/block/nbd.c
+++ b/drivers/block/nbd.c
@@ -1206,7 +1206,7 @@ static void nbd_config_put(struct nbd_device *nbd)
 			device_remove_file(disk_to_dev(nbd->disk), &pid_attr);
 		nbd->task_recv = NULL;
 		nbd_clear_sock(nbd);
-		if (config->num_connections) {
+		if (config->socks) {
 			int i;
 			for (i = 0; i < config->num_connections; i++) {
 				sockfd_put(config->socks[i]->sock);
