Subject: [PATCH] futex: Prevent pi_state from double freeing in case of error
Date: Fri, 18 Dec 2015 14:13:43 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1450428223-7655-1-git-send-email-Bhuvanesh_Surachari@mentor.com> (raw)

From: Bhuvanesh Surachari <bhuvanesh_surachari@mentor.com>

In case of error from rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock pi_state is freed
twice in futex_requeue function. Hence removing free_pi_state in
else branch and branching to the location where pi_state is freed.
