The MDS subsequently complains that the kernel client is late releasing caps.

Approximately, a series of changes to this code by the three commits cited
below resulted in subtle resource cleanup to be missed. The main culprit is the
change in error handling in 2d31604 which meant that a failure in init_request
would no longer cause cleanup to be called. That would prevent the
ceph_put_cap_refs which would cleanup the leaked cap ref.
