[PATCH] fs: fix invalid-free in init_file()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The use of file_free_rcu() in init_file() to free the struct that was
allocated by the caller was hacky and we got what we desreved.

Let init_file() and its callers take care of cleaning up each after
their own allocated resources on error.
