[PATCH] fs/locks.c: Fix lease_init

It is insane to be giving lease_init() the task of freeing the lock it is
supposed to initialise, given that the lock is not guaranteed to be
allocated on the stack. This causes lockups in fcntl_setlease().
Problem diagnosed by Daniel Hokka Zakrisson <daniel@hozac.com>

Also fix a slab leak in __setlease() due to an uninitialised return value.
Problem diagnosed by Björn Steinbrink.
