Subject: e2fsprogs coverity patch <cid-39.diff>

Lawrence Livermore National Labs recently ran the source code
analysis tool Coverity over the e2fsprogs-1.39 source to see 
if it would identify any significant bugs.  The analysis
turned up 38 mostly minor issues which are enumerated here
with patches.  We went through and resolved these issues
but would love to see these mostly minor changes reviewed
and commited upstream.

Thanks,
Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@...l.gov>, and
Herb Wartens <wartens2@...l.gov>

Coverity ID: 39: Resource Leak

Real memory leaks. The fix applied to our tree adds an errout: label at the
end where the memory is freed. The early returns have been replaced with
goto's which jump to the label. It's 'safe' to not check the return code of
e2fsck_allocate_memory because if the memory allocations fails it will
internally call exit().

The fix applied also contrain some writespace cleanup
