[PATCH 4.9 10/92] v9fs_dir_readdir: fix double-free on p9stat_read error

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Nov 29 2018 - 09:20:44 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@xxxxxx>

commit 81c99089bce693b94b775b6eb888115d2d540086 upstream.

p9stat_read will call p9stat_free on error, we should only free the
struct content on success.

There also is no need to "p9stat_init" st as the read function will
zero the whole struct for us anyway, so clean up the code a bit while
we are here.
