4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 7fabaf303458fcabb694999d6fa772cc13d4e217 upstream.
fuse_request_send_notify_reply() may fail if the connection was reset for
some reason (e.g. fs was unmounted). Don't leak request reference in this
case. Besides leaking memory, this resulted in fc->num_waiting not being
decremented and hence fuse_wait_aborted() left in a hanging and unkillable
state.
Fixes: 2d45ba381a74 ("fuse: add retrieve request")
Fixes: b8f95e5d13f5 ("fuse: umount should wait for all requests")
