The patch titled Subject: z3fold: fix memory leak in kmem cache has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was z3fold-fix-memory-leak-in-kmem-cache.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------ From: Vitaly Wool vitalywool@gmail.com Subject: z3fold: fix memory leak in kmem cache
Currently there is a leak in init_z3fold_page() -- it allocates handles from kmem cache even for headless pages, but then they are never used and never freed, so eventually kmem cache may get exhausted. This patch provides a fix for that.
