Subject: [PATCH v2] Btrfs: remove unneeded allocation in
	load_free_space_cache()

I messed up size argument of kzalloc() and consequently memcpy().  Here
is an updated version.


The checksums array is unused, remove it.  We only need disk_crcs array
to verify checksums.

There is no need to allocate first_page_offset bytes for disk_crcs
array.  It's enough to allocate (sizeof(u32) * num_checksums) bytes
because disk_crcs should only hold checksums.  gen is fetched
directly from the page.

cur_crc is initialized later in the code.  Don't initialize it in a
declaration.
