Subject: [PATCH] cifs: Fix a tiny potential memory leak
Date: Sat, 05 Jan 2019 18:18:03 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190105181803.GD3288@kadam> (raw)
The most recent "it" allocation is leaked on this error path. I
believe that small allocations always succeed in current kernels so
this doesn't really affect run time.
Fixes: 54be1f6c1c37 ("cifs: Add DFS cache routines")
