Dave, which tree should that go through? Do you pick it, or should I send the below directly to Linus? ---- Fix a leak in socket(2) when we fail to allocate a file descriptor. Got broken by "make sock_alloc_file() do sock_release() on failures" - cleanup after sock_map_fd() failure got pulled all the way into sock_alloc_file(), but it used to serve the case when sock_map_fd() failed *before* getting to sock_alloc_file() as well, and that got lost. Trivial to fix, fortunately.
