staging: lustre: Don't leak 'buffer' in cfs_get_environ()
If 'down_read_trylock' fails we'll curently leak the memory allocated to 'buffer'. Fix the leak by simply kfree'ing 'buffer' before returning '-EDEADLK'. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
