6     [PATCH] fs/locks.c: Fix lease_init (CVE-2006-1860)
7    
8     It is insane to be giving lease_init() the task of freeing the lock it is
9     supposed to initialise, given that the lock is not guaranteed to be
10     allocated on the stack. This causes lockups in fcntl_setlease().
11     Problem diagnosed by Daniel Hokka Zakrisson <daniel@hozac.com>
12    
13     Also fix a slab leak in __setlease() due to an uninitialised return value.
14     Problem diagnosed by Björn Steinbrink.
