Subject: [PATCH 2/2] NFS: Decrement refcounts if allocating nfs_free_stateid_data fails
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 16:47:15 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260710204715.621189-2-anna@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260710204715.621189-1-anna@kernel.org>
From: Anna Schumaker <anna.schumaker@hammerspace.com>
I noticed that we were immediately exiting this function if the
allocation fails, leaving the client and server object refcounts bumped.
Fix this by creating a common exit point to clean up dangling
references.
Fixes: 576acc259146 ("nfs4: take a reference on the nfs_client when running FREE_STATEID")
