From 6a860c979b35469e4d77da781a96bdb2ca05ae64 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Fri, 20 Jul 2007 15:18:12 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] splice: fix bad unlock_page() in error case If add_to_page_cache_lru() fails, the page will not be locked. But splice jumps to an error path that does a page release and unlock, causing a BUG() in unlock_page(). Fix this by adding one more label that just releases the page. This bug was actually triggered on EL5 by gurudas pai using fio.
