[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 1/9] autofs: fix a leak in autofs_expire_indirect()

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Fri Nov 22 2019 - 14:51:13 EST


From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 03ad0d703df75c43f78bd72e16124b5b94a95188 ]

if the second call of should_expire() in there ends up
grabbing and returning a new reference to dentry, we need
to drop it before continuing.
