There's at least one leak I can see in expiry.c, BTW - autofs4_expire_direct()
leaks root dentry if you hit
/* No point expiring a pending mount */
if (ino->flags & AUTOFS_INF_PENDING) {
spin_unlock(&sbi->fs_lock);
return NULL;
}
in there. Try to stick dput(root) before that return and see if that's what
it is...
