Subject: [PATCH 3/5] DebugFS : file/directory creation error handling, 2.6.19-rc6
Date: Fri, 24 Nov 2006 13:48:19 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061124184818.GC8952@Krystal> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20061123080009.GD1703@Krystal>
Fix error handling of file and directory creation in DebugFS.
The error path should release the file system because no _remove will be called
for this erroneous creation.
