    io_uring/msg_ring: use kmem_cache_free() to free request · be4f5d9c
    Jens Axboe authored
    The change adding caching around the request allocated and freed for
    data messages changed a kmem_cache_free() to a kfree(), which isn't
    correct as the request came from slab in the first place. Fix that up
    and use the right freeing function if the cache is already at its limit.
    
    Note that the current mixing of kmem_cache_alloc and kfree is fine, but
    consistent alloc/free functions should be used as it's otherwise somewhat
    confusing.
    
    Fixes: 50cf5f38 ("io_uring/msg_ring: add an alloc cache for io_kiocb entries")
