The patch titled Subject: nilfs2: fix memory leak in nilfs_sysfs_create_snapshot_group has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was nilfs2-fix-memory-leak-in-nilfs_sysfs_create_snapshot_group.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Nanyong Sun <sunnanyong@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: nilfs2: fix memory leak in nilfs_sysfs_create_snapshot_group If kobject_init_and_add returns with error, kobject_put() is needed here to avoid memory leak, because kobject_init_and_add may return error without freeing the memory associated with the kobject it allocated.
