From aedf77d56472d1fddf050c61c1017d4f51149fb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cong Wang Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2016 10:33:34 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] FROMLIST: 9p: fix a potential acl leak (https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/12/13/579) posix_acl_update_mode() could possibly clear 'acl', if so we leak the memory pointed by 'acl'. Save this pointer before calling posix_acl_update_mode() and release the memory if 'acl' really gets cleared.
