From a05b82d5149dfeef05254a11c3636a89a854520a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vaibhav Jain Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:53:53 +0530 Subject: cxl: Fix leaking pid refs in some error paths In some error paths in functions cxl_start_context and afu_ioctl_start_work pid references to the current & group-leader tasks can leak after they are taken. This patch fixes these error paths to release these pid references before exiting the error path.
