    [PATCH] fix races and leaks in vfs_quota_on() users · 77e69dac
    Al Viro authored
    * new helper: vfs_quota_on_path(); equivalent of vfs_quota_on() sans the
      pathname resolution.
    * callers of vfs_quota_on() that do their own pathname resolution and
      checks based on it are switched to vfs_quota_on_path(); that way we
      avoid the races.
    * reiserfs leaked dentry/vfsmount references on several failure exits.
