Subject: [PATCH] HFS: fix memory leak when unmounting

When an HFS filesystem is unmounted, it leaks a 2-page
bitmap.  Also, under extreme memory pressure, it's possible
that hfs_releasepage() may use a tree pointer that has not
been initialized, and if so, the release request should
just be rejected.
