[PATCH] VFS: Fix memory leak with file leases
The patch
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/diffs/fs/locks.c@1.70??nav=index.html
introduced a pretty nasty memory leak in the lease code. When freeing
the lease, the code in locks_delete_lock() will correctly clean up
the fasync queue, but when we return to fcntl_setlease(), the freed
fasync entry will be reinstated.
This patch ensures that we skip the call to fasync_helper() when we're
freeing up the lease.

We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things
like that. What we did there was to put the compat handler to generic
