Subject: [PATCH 2/2] aio: fix potential leak in aio_run_iocb().
Date: Thu, 1 May 2014 09:07:09 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140501130709.GL28959@kvack.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1398948681.git.bcrl@kvack.org>

iovec should be reclaimed whenever caller of rw_copy_check_uvector() returns,
but it doesn't hold when failure happens right after aio_setup_vectored_rw().

Fix that in a such way to avoid hairy goto.
