The patch titled
Subject: kernel/audit_tree.c: tree will leak memory when failure occurs in audit_trim_trees()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kernel-audit_treec-tree-will-leak-memory-when-failure-occurs-in-audit_trim_trees.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Chen Gang <gang.chen@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kernel/audit_tree.c: tree will leak memory when failure occurs in audit_trim_trees()
audit_trim_trees() calls get_tree(). If a failure occurs we must call
put_tree().
[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: run put_tree() before mutex_lock() for small scalability improvement]
