Subject: Re: [PATCH cgroup/for-4.5-fixes] cgroup: fix alloc_cgroup_ns() error handling in copy_cgroup_ns()

Sorry, I was feeling like a jerk yesterday.

I obviously could have fixed this myself but I wanted to make a point
about one error label, do-everything style "future proof" error
handling.  It is a trap for the unwary.

Now the code calls kfree(-ENOMEM).  It's a very predictable mistake.

regards,
dan carpenter
