In nfs4_try_migration(), if nfs4_begin_drain_session() fails, the
previously allocated 'page' and 'locations' are not deallocated, leading to
memory leaks. To fix this issue, free 'page' and 'locations' before
returning the error.

Thanks for the suggestion! I think a better option would be to switch
the "return status" into a "goto out" so we can keep all our cleanup
code in a single place in case we ever need to change it in the future.

What do you think?
