This patch has been added to the  stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 6d06b0d25209c80e99c1e89700f1e09694a3766b ]

afs_write_begin() leaks a ref and a lock on a page if afs_fill_page()
fails.  Fix the leak by unlocking and releasing the page in the error path.
