From: David Howells Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2025 16:38:40 +0000 (+0100) Subject: netfs: Fix ref leak on inserted extra subreq in write retry X-Git-Url: https://git.kernel.dk/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=97d8e8e52cb8ab3d7675880a92626d9a4332f7a6;p=linux-block.git netfs: Fix ref leak on inserted extra subreq in write retry The write-retry algorithm will insert extra subrequests into the list if it can't get sufficient capacity to split the range that needs to be retried into the sequence of subrequests it currently has (for instance, if the cifs credit pool has fewer credits available than it did when the range was originally divided). However, the allocator furnishes each new subreq with 2 refs and then another is added for resubmission, causing one to be leaked. Fix this by replacing the ref-getting line with a neutral trace line.
