btrfs_lock_and_flush_ordered_range() loads given "*cached_state" into
cachedp, which, in general, is NULL. Then, lock_extent_bits() updates
"cachedp", but it never goes backs to the caller. Thus the caller still
see its "cached_state" to be NULL and never free the state allocated
under btrfs_lock_and_flush_ordered_range(). As a result, we will
see massive state leak with e.g. fstests btrfs/005. Fix this bug by
properly handling the pointers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
