[PATCH] cifs: release cifs root_cred after exit_cifs

Show all headers | View raw

From: Shu Wang <shuwang@redhat.com>

memory leak was found by kmemleak. exit_cifs_spnego
should be called before cifs module removed, or
cifs root_cred will not be released.

kmemleak report:
unreferenced object 0xffff880070a3ce40 (size 192):
