When init_file() failed it would call file_free_rcu() on the file allocated by the caller of init_file(). It naively assumed that the correct cleanup operation would be called depending on whether it is a regular file or a backing file. However, that presupposes that the FMODE_BACKING flag would already be set which it won't be as that is done in the caller of init_file(). Fix that bug by moving the cleanup of the allocated file into the caller where it belongs in the first place. There's no good reason for init_file() to consume resources it didn't allocate. This is a mainline only fix and was reported by syzbot. The fix was validated by syzbot against the provided reproducer" * tag 'v6.5/vfs.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: move cleanup from init_file() into its callers
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
