Subject[ 028/175] sysfs: Fix memory leak in sysfs_sd_setsecdata().
3.3-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masami Ichikawa <masami256@gmail.com>

commit 93518dd2ebafcc761a8637b2877008cfd748c202 upstream.

This patch fixies follwing two memory leak patterns that reported by kmemleak.
sysfs_sd_setsecdata() is called during sys_lsetxattr() operation.
It checks sd->s_iattr is NULL or not. Then if it is NULL, it calls
sysfs_init_inode_attrs() to allocate memory.
That code is this.

iattrs = sd->s_iattr;
if (!iattrs)
iattrs = sysfs_init_inode_attrs(sd);

The iattrs recieves sysfs_init_inode_attrs()'s result, but sd->s_iattr
doesn't know the address. so it needs to set correct address to
sd->s_iattr to free memory in other function.
