On 'btrfs_ioctl_qgroup_assign' we first duplicate the argument as
provided by the user, which is kfree'd in the end. But this was not the
case when allocating memory for 'prealloc'. In this case, if it somehow
failed, then the previous code would go directly into calling
'mnt_drop_write_file', without freeing the string duplicated from the
user space.

Fixes: 4addc1ffd67a ("btrfs: qgroup: preallocate memory before adding a relation")
