5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> commit c853a5783ebe123847886d432354931874367292 upstream. Instead of using kmalloc() to allocate btrfs_ioctl_defrag_range_args, allocate btrfs_ioctl_defrag_range_args on stack, the size is reasonably small and ioctls are called in process context. sizeof(btrfs_ioctl_defrag_range_args) = 48 Reviewed-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> [ This patch is needed to fix a memory leak of "range" that was introduced when commit 173431b274a9 ("btrfs: defrag: reject unknown flags of btrfs_ioctl_defrag_range_args") was backported to kernels lacking this patch. Now with these two patches applied in reverse order, range->flags needed to change back to range.flags.
