Subject: ceph: fix memory leak in __ceph_setxattr()
From: Luis Henriques <lhenriques@suse.com>
commit eeca958dce0a9231d1969f86196653eb50fcc9b3 upstream.
The ceph_inode_xattr needs to be released when removing an xattr. Easily
reproducible running the 'generic/020' test from xfstests or simply by
doing:
attr -s attr0 -V 0 /mnt/test && attr -r attr0 /mnt/test
While there, also fix the error path.
Here's the kmemleak splat:
unreferenced object 0xffff88001f86fbc0 (size 64):
comm "attr", pid 244, jiffies 4294904246 (age 98.464s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
