In dbAllocCtl(), read_metapage() increases the reference count of the
metapage. However, when dp->tree.budmin < 0, the function returns -EIO
without calling release_metapage() to decrease the reference count,
leading to a memory leak.
Add release_metapage(mp) before the error return to properly manage
the metapage reference count and prevent the leak.

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.
