From b914152a6fbd2cd0441bc293ae8b3f3f1a9407b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "J. Bruce Fields" Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 19:34:22 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: fix cred leak on every rpc Since override_creds() took its own reference on new, we need to release our own reference. (Note the put_cred on the return value puts the *old* value of current->creds, not the new passed-in value). Signed-off-by: J.
