[PATCH 03/15] read-cache: free cache entry in add_to_index in case of early return

From: Stefan Beller <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 23:04:14
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

This frees `ce` would be leaking in the error path.

Additionally a free is moved towards the return. This helps code
readability as we often have this pattern of freeing resources just
before return/exit and not in between the code.
