[PATCH] SUNRPC/cache: add module_put() on error path in cache_open()

From: Alexey Khoroshilov <hidden>
Date: 2013-03-22 20:36:57
Also in: linux-nfs, lkml
Subsystem: kernel nfsd, sunrpc, and lockd servers, networking [general], nfs, sunrpc, and lockd clients, the rest · Maintainers: Chuck Lever, Jeff Layton, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Trond Myklebust, Anna Schumaker, Linus Torvalds

If kmalloc() fails in cache_open(), module cd->owner left locked.
The patch adds module_put(cd->owner) on this path.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
