4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.marti...@cea.fr> commit 81c99089bce693b94b775b6eb888115d2d540086 upstream. p9stat_read will call p9stat_free on error, we should only free the struct content on success. There also is no need to "p9stat_init" st as the read function will zero the whole struct for us anyway, so clean up the code a bit while we are here.
