From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> commit c7967fc1499beb9b70bb9d33525fb0b384af8883 upstream. If we fail to reserve metadata for delalloc operations we end up releasing the previously reserved qgroup amount twice, once explicitly under the 'out_qgroup' label by calling btrfs_qgroup_free_meta_prealloc() and once again, under label 'out_fail', by calling btrfs_inode_rsv_release() with a value of 'true' for its 'qgroup_free' argument, which results in btrfs_qgroup_free_meta_prealloc() being called again, so we end up having a double free. Also if we fail to reserve the necessary qgroup amount, we jump to the label 'out_fail', which calls btrfs_inode_rsv_release() and that in turns calls btrfs_qgroup_free_meta_prealloc(), even though we weren't able to reserve any qgroup amount. So we freed some amount we never reserved. So fix this by removing the call to btrfs_inode_rsv_release() in the failure path, since it's not necessary at all as we haven't changed the inode's block reserve in any way at this point.
