3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This reverts commit d9100405a20a71dd620843e0380e38fc50731108 which was commit f507b54dccfd8000c517d740bc45f20c74532d18 upstream. Ben reports: That function doesn't exist here (it was introduced in 4.13). Instead, this backport has modified bsg_create_job(), creating a leak. Please revert this on the 3.18, 4.4 and 4.9 stable branches. So I'm dropping it from here.
