Subject: [PATCH 3.16 274/366] fat: fix memory allocation failure handling
 of match_strdup()

3.16.61-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@...l.parknet.co.jp>

commit 35033ab988c396ad7bce3b6d24060c16a9066db8 upstream.

In parse_options(), if match_strdup() failed, parse_options() leaves
opts->iocharset in unexpected state (i.e.  still pointing the freed
string).  And this can be the cause of double free.

To fix, this initialize opts->iocharset always when freeing.
