From 6fdcc2162285a8fc96ab12ff85086c37bceaa494 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Staubach Date: Mon, 7 Nov 2005 00:59:42 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] memory leak in dentry_open() There is a memory leak possible in dentry_open(). If get_empty_filp() fails, then the references to dentry and mnt need to be released. The attached patch adds the calls to dput() and mntput() to release these two references.
