Subject: [PATCH 4.19] Revert "cifs: fix double free race when mount fails in cifs_get_root()"
Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2022 10:49:55 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220928024955.3001504-1-luomeng12@huawei.com> (raw)

This reverts commit 2fe0e281f7ad0a62259649764228227dd6b2561d.

Commit 2fe0e281f7ad (cifs: fix double free race when mount fails
in cifs_get_root()) fixes a double. However there is no such
issue on 4.19 because it will return after cifs_cleanup_volume_info().

Since merge this patch, cifs_cleanup_volume_info() is skipped, leading
to a memory leak.
