Dominique Martinet 491fc097e3 9p locks: fix glock.client_id leak in do_lock
[ Upstream commit b4dc44b3ca ]

the 9p client code overwrites our glock.client_id pointing to a static
buffer by an allocated string holding the network provided value which
we do not care about; free and reset the value as appropriate.

This is almost identical to the leak in v9fs_file_getlock() fixed by
Al Viro in commit ce85dd58ad ("9p: we are leaking glock.client_id
in v9fs_file_getlock()"), which was returned as an error by a coverity
false positive -- while we are here attempt to make the code slightly
more robust to future change of the net/9p/client code and hopefully
more clear to coverity that there is no problem.

============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
