[lvc-project] [PATCH] net: 9p: avoid freeing uninit memory in p9pdu_vreadf

[Fedor Pchelkin]

If an error occurs while processing an array of strings in p9pdu_vreadf
then uninitialized members of *wnames array are freed.

Fix this by iterating over only lower indices of the array.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org).

Fixes: ace51c4dd2f9 ("9p: add new protocol support code")
