From: Qian Cai <cai@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 8a018eb55e3ac033592afbcb476b0ffe64465b12 ] Calling pipe2() with O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE could results in memory leaks unless watch_queue_init() is successful. In case of watch_queue_init() failure in pipe2() we are left with inode and pipe_inode_info instances that need to be freed. That failure exit has been introduced in commit c73be61cede5 ("pipe: Add general notification queue support") and its handling should've been identical to nearby treatment of alloc_file_pseudo() failures - it is dealing with the same situation. As it is, the mainline kernel leaks in that case. Another problem is that CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE and !CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE cases are treated differently (and the former leaks just pipe_inode_info, the latter - both pipe_inode_info and inode). Fixed by providing a dummy wacth_queue_init() in !CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE case and by having failures of wacth_queue_init() handled the same way we handle alloc_file_pseudo() ones.
