Trond Myklebust 293cdcd89b NFS: Fix memory leaks and corruption in readdir
commit 4b310319c6 upstream.

nfs_readdir_xdr_to_array() must not exit without having initialised
the array, so that the page cache deletion routines can safely
call nfs_readdir_clear_array().
Furthermore, we should ensure that if we exit nfs_readdir_filler()
with an error, we free up any page contents to prevent a leak
if we try to fill the page again.

Fixes: 11de3b11e0 ("NFS: Fix a memory leak in nfs_readdir")

README

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.
