Subject: ext4: plug a buffer_head leak in an error path of ext4_iget()
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=567f3e9a70d71e5c9be03701b8578be77857293b;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

ext4: plug a buffer_head leak in an error path of ext4_iget()

One of the invalid error paths in ext4_iget() forgot to brelse() the
inode buffer head.  Fix it by adding a brelse() in the common error
return path, which also simplifies function.

Thanks to Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> reporting the problem.
