smb: client: fix possible double free in smb2_set_ea()
Clang static checker(scan-build) warning:
fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c:1304:2: Attempt to free released memory.
1304 | kfree(ea);
| ^~~~~~~~~
There is a double free in such case:
'ea is initialized to NULL' -> 'first successful memory allocation for
ea' -> 'something failed, goto sea_exit' -> 'first memory release for ea'
-> 'goto replay_again' -> 'second goto sea_exit before allocate memory
for ea' -> 'second memory release for ea resulted in double free'.
Re-initialie 'ea' to NULL near to the replay_again label, it can fix this
double free problem.
