Subject: [PATCH 5.10 470/717] block/rnbd-clt: Fix possible memleak

From: Jack Wang <jinpu.wang@...ud.ionos.com>

[ Upstream commit 46067844efdb8275ade705923120fc5391543b53 ]

In error case, we do not free the memory for blk_symlink_name.

Do it by free the memory in error case, and set to NULL
afterwards.

Also fix the condition in rnbd_clt_remove_dev_symlink.

Fixes: 64e8a6ece1a5 ("block/rnbd-clt: Dynamically alloc buffer for pathname & blk_symlink_name")
