Subject: ipc,shm: cleanup do_shmat pasta
From: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@xxxxxx>
commit f42569b1388b1408b574a5e93a23a663647d4181 upstream.
Clean up some of the messy do_shmat() spaghetti code, getting rid of
out_free and out_put_dentry labels. This makes shortening the critical
region of this function in the next patch a little easier to do and read.
