Also in: linux-nfs, lkml, stable
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

In gss_proxy_save_rsc(), if gss_import_sec_context() fails,
call gss_mech_put() to release the reources acquired by
gss_mech_get_by_OID().

Fixes: 030d794bf498 ("SUNRPC: Use gssproxy upcall for server RPCGSS authentication.")
