The patch titled fs/binfmt_misc.c: fix resource leaks has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-binfmt_miscc-fix-resource-leaks.patch This patch was dropped because it was nacked The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: fs/binfmt_misc.c: fix resource leaks From: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx> ->load_binary()'s caller only frees resources which ->load_binary() applied when it succeeded, so ->load_binary() itself should free the resources on failure.
