From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@xxxxxxx> Subject: hfsplus: do not free node before using hfs_bmap_free() frees node via hfs_bnode_put(node). However it then reads node->this when dumping error message on an error path, which may result in a use-after-free bug. This patch frees node only when it is never used.
