Have just noticed these in the past few days, now running 2.6.37-rc1+
Seems to be 1 logged per file save when using a text file with gedit over cifs.

Can you tell the called function in cifs_setattr_unix vs. cifs_setattr_nounix
(the former will usually be called when the server is Samba, the latter
when the server is Windows or NetApp).  What is the server type?

Didn't see anything obvious in cifs_setattr_unix on the kmalloc/kfree
of full_path,
but it will help when we know which path we are in.  We did make some recent
changes in 2.6.37 in file allocation.

The server is a qnap NAS, running linux 2.6.24

Are you using the mount option 'nounix'? I spotted a memleak in the
nounix code path introduced by a recent patch and proposed a fix here:

Does this fix the leak for you?
