capabilities: fix potential memleak on error path from vfs_getxattr_alloc()

Browse Source 
commit 8cf0a1bc12 upstream.

In cap_inode_getsecurity(), we will use vfs_getxattr_alloc() to
complete the memory allocation of tmpbuf, if we have completed
the memory allocation of tmpbuf, but failed to call handler->get(...),
there will be a memleak in below logic:

  |-- ret = (int)vfs_getxattr_alloc(mnt_userns, ...)
    |           /* ^^^ alloc for tmpbuf */
    |-- value = krealloc(*xattr_value, error + 1, flags)
    |           /* ^^^ alloc memory */
    |-- error = handler->get(handler, ...)
    |           /* error! */
    |-- *xattr_value = value
    |           /* xattr_value is &tmpbuf (memory leak!) */

So we will try to free(tmpbuf) after vfs_getxattr_alloc() fails to fix it.
