Subject: [PATCH v2] ocfs2: Fix a use after free on error

The error handling in this function frees "reg" but it is still on the
"o2hb_all_regions" list so it will lead to a use after freew.  Joseph Qi
points out that we need to clear the bit in the "o2hb_region_bitmap" as
well

Fixes: 1cf257f51191 ("ocfs2: fix memory leak")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

v2: The first version didn't clear the bit.
