Pull orangefs fix from Mike Marshall:
"We recently refactored the Orangefs debugfs code. The refactor seemed
to trigger dan.carpenter@oracle.com's static tester to find a possible
double-free in the code.
While designing the fix we saw a condition under which the buffer
being freed could also be overflowed.
We also realized how to rebuild the related debugfs file's "contents"
(a string) without deleting and re-creating the file.
This fix should eliminate the possible double-free, the potential
overflow and improve code readability"
