Subject: [PATCH] fs/jffs2: Add missing call to posix_acl_release
Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2008 17:50:34 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0801061749490.24950@ask.diku.dk> (raw)

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

posix_acl_clone does a memory allocation and sets a reference count, so
posix_acl_release is needed afterwards to free it.


The problem was fixed using the following semantic patch.

  return ret;
