In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: destroy seen inode bitmap when we fail to add a dirpath
LOLLM observes a memory leak in xchk_dirtree_create_path if we create
the directory path object but appending the name to the path fails.
When this happens, we don't tear down the (empty) seen inode bitmap.
This is a pretty trivial error, but let's not leave logic bombs.
Do the same for a similar bug in xrep_dirtree_create_adoption_path.
