GFS2 passes the inode buffer head (dibh) from gfs2_iomap_begin to gfs2_iomap_end in iomap->private. It sets that private pointer in gfs2_iomap_get. Users of gfs2_iomap_get other than gfs2_iomap_begin would have to release iomap->private, but this isn't done correctly, leading to a leak of buffer head references. To fix this, move the code for setting iomap->private from gfs2_iomap_get to gfs2_iomap_begin.

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. 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.
