Subject: [PATCH 5.8 316/633] mm/swapfile.c: fix potential memory leak in sys_swapon

From: Miaohe Lin <linmiaohe@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 822bca52ee7eb279acfba261a423ed7ac47d6f73 ]

If we failed to drain inode, we would forget to free the swap address
space allocated by init_swap_address_space() above.

Fixes: dc617f29dbe5 ("vfs: don't allow writes to swap files")
