I don't like that patch because it looks complicated; it obscures the
problem and it runs a bunch of code (fscrypt, zero_page_vector) before
noticing the problem. My patch is simple and breaks the loop as soon
as the new size is known.

But I found a bug in my patch: I forgot to call
ceph_osdc_put_request(). And while looking at it, I found another
(old) leak bug. I'll post two new patches.

(I'm trying hard to suppress a rant about C, after fixing several
other Ceph leak bugs this week that caused server outages over here.)
