Subject: [PATCH] ipc: mqueue: fix possible memory leak in init_mqueue_fs()
Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2022 14:23:01 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220715062301.19311-1-hbh25y@gmail.com> (raw)

commit db7cfc380900 ("ipc: Free mq_sysctls if ipc namespace creation
failed")

Here's a similar memory leak to the one fixed by the patch above.
retire_mq_sysctls need to be called when init_mqueue_fs fails after
setup_mq_sysctls.

Fixes: dc55e35f9e81 ("ipc: Store mqueue sysctls in the ipc namespace")
