md/raid1: r1buf_pool_alloc: free allocate pages when subsequent allocation fails.
commit da1aab3dca9aa88ae34ca392470b8943159e25fe upstream. When performing a user-request check/repair (MD_RECOVERY_REQUEST is set) on a raid1, we allocate multiple bios each with their own set of pages. If the page allocations for one bio fails, we currently do *not* free the pages allocated for the previous bios, nor do we free the bio itself. This patch frees all the already-allocate pages, and makes sure that all the bios are freed as well. This bug can cause a memory leak which can ultimately OOM a machine. It was introduced in 3.10-rc1.
