4.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Luis Henriques <lhenriques@xxxxxxxx> commit eeca958dce0a9231d1969f86196653eb50fcc9b3 upstream. The ceph_inode_xattr needs to be released when removing an xattr. Easily reproducible running the 'generic/020' test from xfstests or simply by doing: attr -s attr0 -V 0 /mnt/test && attr -r attr0 /mnt/test While there, also fix the error path.
