There's a memory leak in afs_parse_source() whereby multiple source=
parameters overwrite fc->source in the fs_context struct without freeing
the previously recorded source.
Fix this by only permitting a single source parameter and rejecting with
an error all subsequent ones.
This was caught by syzbot with the kernel memory leak detector, showing
something like the following trace:
unreferenced object 0xffff888114375440 (size 32):
comm "repro", pid 5168, jiffies 4294923723 (age 569.948s)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
