Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: fix uninitialized pointer free on add_inode_ref

The "add_inode_ref" function does not initializes the "name" struct
when it is declared.  If any of the following calls to
"read_one_inode" returns NULL,

	dir = read_one_inode(root, parent_objectid);
	if (!dir) {
		ret = -ENOENT;
		goto out;
	}

	inode = read_one_inode(root, inode_objectid);
	if (!inode) {
		ret = -EIO;
		goto out;
	}

then "name.name" would be freed on "out" before being initialized.

out:
	...
	kfree(name.name);

This issue was reported by Coverity with CID 1526744.
