Deepanshu Kartikey b57f2ddd28 btrfs: fix memory leak of fs_devices in degraded seed device path
In open_seed_devices(), when find_fsid() fails and we're in DEGRADED
mode, a new fs_devices is allocated via alloc_fs_devices() but is never
added to the seed_list before returning. This contrasts with the normal
path where fs_devices is properly added via list_add().

If any error occurs later in read_one_dev() or btrfs_read_chunk_tree(),
the cleanup code iterates seed_list to free seed devices, but this
orphaned fs_devices is never found and never freed, causing a memory
leak. Any devices allocated via add_missing_dev() and attached to this
fs_devices are also leaked.

Fix this by adding the newly allocated fs_devices to seed_list in the
degraded path, consistent with the normal path.

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 reStructuredText 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.
