[PATCH] lightnvm: fix possible uninitialized-variable access in nvme_nvm_submit_user_cmd()

The variable metadata_dma is not initialized at the beginning of the
function nvme_nvm_submit_user_cmd(). If the parameter ubuf is NULL, it
remains uninitialized at the label err_meta. However, it is accessed
through the function dma_pool_free() if meta_buf is not NULL and
meta_len is not zero. In fact, ubuf, meta_buf and meta_len can come from
user space which indicates this can happen.
To fix this possible bug, only when ubuf and meta_buf are not NULL, and
bufflen and meta_len are not zero, the function dma_pool_free() is
called.
