Add a DEFINE_FREE for struct btrfs_path. This defines a function that
can be called using the __free attribute. Define a macro
BTRFS_PATH_AUTO_FREE to make the declaration of an auto freeing path
very clear.
The intended use is to define the auto free of path in cases where the
path is allocated somewhere at the beginning and freed either on all
error paths or at the end of the function.
int func() {
BTRFS_PATH_AUTO_FREE(path);
if (...)
return -ERROR;
path = alloc_path();
...
if (...)
return -ERROR;
...
return 0;
}

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
