block/rnbd-clt: Fix missing a memory free when unloading the module
When unloading the rnbd-clt module, it does not free a memory including the filename of the symbolic link to /sys/block/rnbdX. It is found by kmemleak as below. unreferenced object 0xffff9f1a83d3c740 (size 16): comm "bash", pid 736, jiffies 4295179665 (age 9841.310s) hex dump (first 16 bytes): 21 64 65 76 21 6e 75 6c 6c 62 30 40 62 6c 61 00 !dev!nullb0@bla. backtrace: [<0000000039f0c55e>] 0xffffffffc0456c24 [<000000001aab9513>] kernfs_fop_write+0xcf/0x1c0 [<00000000db5aa4b3>] vfs_write+0xdb/0x1d0 [<000000007a2e2207>] ksys_write+0x65/0xe0 [<00000000055e280a>] do_syscall_64+0x50/0x1b0 [<00000000c2b51831>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Signed-off-by: Gioh Kim <gi-oh.kim@ionos.com> Signed-off-by: Jack Wang <jinpu.wang@ionos.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210419073722.15351-13-gi-oh.kim@ionos.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
