kernel/audit_tree.c: tree will leak memory when failure occurs in audit_trim_trees()
audit_trim_trees() calls get_tree(). If a failure occurs we must call put_tree(). [akpm@linux-foundation.org: run put_tree() before mutex_lock() for small scalability improvement] Signed-off-by: Chen Gang <gang.chen@asianux.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
