curvetun: use free instead of xfree
Only use xfree where it makes sense, here not really. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>

The problem is with 14b468791fa9 ("mm: workingset: move shadow entry tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking"), which passes an update callback into the radix tree to link and unlink shadow leaf nodes when tree entries change, but forgot to pass the callback when reclaiming a shadow node. While the reclaimed shadow node itself is unlinked by the shrinker, its deletion from the tree can cause the left-most leaf node in the tree to be shrunk. If that happens to be a shadow node as well, we don't unlink it from the LRU as we should. Consider this tree, where the s are shadow entries: root->rnode | [0 n] | | [s ] [sssss] Now the shadow node shrinker reclaims the rightmost leaf node through the shadow node LRU: root->rnode | [0 ] | [s ] Because the parent of the deleted node is the first level below the root and has only one child in the left-most slot, the intermediate level is shrunk and the node containing the single shadow is put in its place: root->rnode | [s ] The shrinker again sees a single left-most slot in a first level node and thus decides to store the shadow in root->rnode directly and free the node - which is a leaf node on the shadow node LRU. root->rnode | s Without the update callback, the freed node remains on the shadow LRU, where it causes later shrinker runs to crash. Pass the node updater callback into __radix_tree_delete_node() in case the deletion causes the left-most branch in the tree to collapse too. Also add warnings when linked nodes are freed right away, rather than wait for the use-after-free when the list is scanned much later.
