Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: init csum_list before possible free

The scrub_ctx csum_list member must be initialized before scrub_free_ctx is called. If the csum_list is not initialized beforehand, the list_empty call in scrub_free_csums will result in a null deref if the allocation fails in the for loop.
