[PATCH 04/12] ss_add_info_dir: fix memory leak and check whether,NULL pointer

From: Wu Guanghao <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-24 11:21:21
Subsystem: library code, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

In ss_add_info_dir(), need free info->info_dirs before return,
otherwise it will cause memory leak. At the same time, it is necessary
to check whether dirs[n_dirs] is a null pointer, otherwise a segmentation
fault will occur.
