From: Dongliang Mu <mudongliangabcd@xxxxxxxxx> commit 81dedaf10c20959bdf5624f9783f408df26ba7a4 upstream. Since the commit c3d98ea08291 ("VFS: Don't use save/replace_mount_options if not using generic_show_options") eliminates replace_mount_options in reiserfs_remount, but does not handle the allocated new_opts, it will cause memory leak in the reiserfs_remount. Because new_opts is useless in reiserfs_mount, so we fix this bug by removing the useless new_opts in reiserfs_remount.
