Subject: btrfs: ref-verify: fix memory leaks in btrfs_ref_tree_mod()

From: Bragatheswaran Manickavel <bragathemanick0908@xxxxxxxxx>

commit f91192cd68591c6b037da345bc9fcd5e50540358 upstream.

In btrfs_ref_tree_mod(), when !parent 're' was allocated through
kmalloc(). In the following code, if an error occurs, the execution will
be redirected to 'out' or 'out_unlock' and the function will be exited.
However, on some of the paths, 're' are not deallocated and may lead to
memory leaks.

For example: lookup_block_entry() for 'be' returns NULL, the out label
will be invoked. During that flow ref and 'ra' are freed but not 're',
which can potentially lead to a memory leak.
