    mm/huge_memory: Fix xarray node memory leak · 69a37a8b
    Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) authored
    If xas_split_alloc() fails to allocate the necessary nodes to complete the
    xarray entry split, it sets the xa_state to -ENOMEM, which xas_nomem()
    then interprets as "Please allocate more memory", not as "Please free
    any unnecessary memory" (which was the intended outcome).  It's confusing
    to use xas_nomem() to free memory in this context, so call xas_destroy()
    instead.
