btrfs: ref-verify: fix memory leaks



commit f311ade3 upstream.

In btrfs_ref_tree_mod(), 'ref' and 'ra' are allocated through kzalloc() and
kmalloc(), respectively. 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, 'ref' and 'ra' are not
deallocated, leading to memory leaks. For example, if 'action' is
BTRFS_ADD_DELAYED_EXTENT, add_block_entry() will be invoked. If the return
value indicates an error, the execution will be redirected to 'out'. But,
'ref' is not deallocated on this path, causing a memory leak.

To fix the above issues, deallocate both 'ref' and 'ra' before exiting from
the function when an error is encountered.
