Subject: slab: simplify init_kmem_cache_nodes() error handling
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e1340bac1a0ca1314c578687379b0a65d36ae543;p=users%2Fjedix%2Flinux-maple.git

slab: simplify init_kmem_cache_nodes() error handling

We don't need to call free_kmem_cache_nodes() immediately when failing
to allocate a kmem_cache_node, because when we return 0,
do_kmem_cache_create() calls __kmem_cache_release() which also performs
free_kmem_cache_nodes().
