Subject: [autofs4] fix waitq memory leak
Message-id: 20080812042746.15842.1881.stgit@web.messagingengine.com
O-Subject: [RHEL 5.3 PATCH 13/20] autofs4 - fix waitq memory leak [Related: bz452139]
Bugzilla: 452139

This patch is an upstream bug fix and shoud be associated with
bug 452139.

If an autofs mount becomes catatonic before autofs4_wait_release() is
called the wait queue counter will not be decremented down to zero
and the entry will never be freed. There are also races decrementing
the wait counter in the wait release function. To deal with this the
counter needs to be updated while holding the wait queue mutex and
waiters need to be woken up unconditionally when the wait is removed
from the queue to ensure we eventually free the wait.
