[PATCH 3.12 15/72] dm btree: fix leak of bufio-backed block in btree_split_beneath error path
From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Mon Nov 23 2015 - 08:28:14 EST
From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit 4dcb8b57df3593dcb20481d9d6cf79d1dc1534be upstream.
btree_split_beneath()'s error path had an outstanding FIXME that speaks
directly to the potential for _not_ cleaning up a previously allocated
bufio-backed block.
Fix this by releasing the previously allocated bufio block using
unlock_block().
