nfsd: fix dentry leak upon mkdir failure.
syzbot is reporting that nfsd_mkdir() forgot to remove dentry created by d_alloc_name() when __nfsd_mkdir() failed (due to memory allocation fault injection) [1]. [1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=ce41a1f769ea4637ebffedf004a803e8405b4674 Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> Reported-by: syzbot <syzbot+2c95195d5d433f6ed6cb@syzkaller.appspotmail.com> Fixes: e8a79fb14f6b76b5 ("nfsd: add nfsd/clients directory") [bfields: clean up in nfsd_mkdir instead of __nfsd_mkdir] Signed-off-by: J.
