nvme_mpath_init() is called by nvme_init_identify() which is called in
multiple places (nvme_reset_work(), nvme_passthru_end(), etc). This
means nvme_mpath_init() may be called multiple times before
nvme_mpath_uninit() (which is only called on nvme_free_ctrl()).
When nvme_mpath_init() is called multiple times, it overwrites the
ana_log_buf pointer with a new allocation, thus leaking the previous
allocation.
To fix this, free ana_log_buf before allocating a new one.

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 Restructured Text 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.
