Its filename was autofs-remove-ino-free-in-autofs4_dir_symlink.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ian Kent Subject: autofs: remove ino free in autofs4_dir_symlink() The inode allocation failure case in autofs4_dir_symlink() frees the autofs dentry info of the dentry without setting ->d_fsdata to NULL. That could lead to a double free so just get rid of the free and leave it to ->d_release().
