From fbcde197e1befae4228715edf1288c7646808b8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Tobin C. Harding" Date: Mon, 13 May 2019 21:59:04 +0200 Subject: gfs2: Fix error path kobject memory leak If a call to kobject_init_and_add() fails we must call kobject_put() otherwise we leak memory. Function gfs2_sys_fs_add always calls kobject_init_and_add() which always calls kobject_init(). It is safe to leave object destruction up to the kobject release function and never free it manually. Remove call to kfree() and always call kobject_put() in the error path. Signed-off-by: Tobin C.
