      cifs: fix a memleak in cifs_setattr_nounix() · 3565bd46
      Suresh Jayaraman authored
      Andrew Hendry reported a kmemleak warning in 2.6.37-rc1 while editing a
      text file with gedit over cifs.
      
      unreferenced object 0xffff88022ee08b40 (size 32):

      The commit 1025774c that removed inode_setattr() seems to have introduced this
      memleak by returning early without freeing 'full_path'.
