From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> commit b777d279ff31979add57e8a3f810bceb7ef0cfb7 upstream. At btrfs_orphan_cleanup(), if we were able to find the inode, we do an iput() on the inode, then if btrfs_drop_verity_items() succeeds and then either btrfs_start_transaction() or btrfs_del_orphan_item() fail, we do another iput() in the respective error paths, resulting in an extra iput() on the inode. Fix this by setting inode to NULL after the first iput(), as iput() ignores a NULL inode pointer argument.
