which causes what? a use after free?

Can you move this statement up so we list both issues (use after free
and leak) upfront, then discuss the fix?

This is not the best way to document access rules.
Which fields does this protect, exactly?
I think it's just vdev. Right?
Pls add to the comment.

It's more common to do
int ret = 0;
and on error:
ret = -ENXIO;
let's do this.

I prefer
else
ret = -ENXIO
here.

single lines are not supposed to use {}.
if you add ret = -ENXIO here then it won't be a single line anymore
though.
