Subject: [PATCH] shmem: fix double memory uncharge on error path
Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2013 17:46:41 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130912134641.2306.24297.stgit@zurg> (raw)
This patch removes erroneous call of shmem_unacct_size() from error path.
Shmem inode will release that memory reservation in shmem_evict_inode().
So, if following call of alloc_file fails we'll free reservation twice.
