When running xfstests on the current btrfs I get the following splat from
kmemleak:
unreferenced object 0xffff88821b2404e0 (size 32):

This corresponds to:
(gdb) l *(btrfs_find_all_roots_safe+0x41)
0x8d7e1 is in btrfs_find_all_roots_safe (fs/btrfs/backref.c:1413).
1408
1409 tmp = ulist_alloc(GFP_NOFS);
1410 if (!tmp)
1411 return -ENOMEM;
1412 *roots = ulist_alloc(GFP_NOFS);
1413 if (!*roots) {
1414 ulist_free(tmp);
1415 return -ENOMEM;
1416 }
1417
Following the lifetime of the allocated 'roots' ulist, it gets freed
again in btrfs_qgroup_account_extent().
But this does not happen if the function is called with the
'BTRFS_FS_QUOTA_ENABLED' flag cleared, then btrfs_qgroup_account_extent()
does a short leave and directly returns.
Instead of directly returning we should jump to the 'out_free' in order to
free all resources as expected.
