Summary
hfs: ensure sb->s_fs_info is always cleaned up
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

hfs: ensure sb->sfsinfo is always cleaned up

When hfs was converted to the new mount api a bug was introduced by changing the allocation pattern of sb->sfsinfo. If setupbdevsuper() fails after a new superblock has been allocated by sgetfc(), but before hfsfillsuper() takes ownership of the filesystem-specific sfs_info data it was leaked.

Fix this by freeing sb->sfsinfo in hfskillsuper().
