Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] nvdimm: Fix devs leaks in scan_labels()

scan_labels() leaks memory when label scanning fails and it falls back
to just creating a default "seed" namespace for userspace to configure.
Root can force the kernel to leak memory.

Allocate the minimum resources unconditionally and release them when
unneeded to avoid the memory leak.

A kmemleak reports:
