Summary
pnfs/flexfiles: Fix memory leak in nfs4_ff_alloc_deviceid_node()
Details

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

pnfs/flexfiles: Fix memory leak in nfs4ffallocdeviceidnode()

In nfs4ffallocdeviceidnode(), if the allocation for dsversions fails, the function jumps to the outscratch label without freeing the already allocated dsaddrs list, leading to a memory leak.

Fix this by jumping to the outerrdrain_dsaddrs label, which properly frees the dsaddrs list before cleaning up other resources.
