From 51c23b7b7db52493d4fc869cec8c3e8fe27bfcd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Manfred Spraul Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2017 14:35:19 -0700 Subject: ipc/msg.c: avoid ipc_rcu_putref for failed ipc_addid() Loosely based on a patch from Kees Cook : - id and retval can be merged - if ipc_addid() fails, then use call_rcu() directly. The difference is that call_rcu is used for failed ipc_addid() calls, to continue to guaranteed an rcu delay for security_msg_queue_free().
