From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2014 07:37:34 +0100 The iput() function was called in an inefficient way by the implementation of the fat_fill_super() function in case of an allocation failure. The corresponding source code was improved by deletion of two unnecessary null pointer checks and a few adjustments for jump labels.
