[PATCH] SUNRPC/cache: add module_put() on error path in cache_open()

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Fri Mar 22 2013 - 16:36:59 EST


If kmalloc() fails in cache_open(), module cd->owner left locked.
The patch adds module_put(cd->owner) on this path.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
