In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs:
free exchange changeset on failures Fstests runs on my VMs have show
several kmemleak reports like the following. unreferenced object

do_syscall_64+0x43/0x90 In case brtfs_qgroup_reserve_data() or
btrfs_delalloc_reserve_metadata() fail the allocated extent_changeset will
not be freed. So in btrfs_check_data_free_space() and
btrfs_delalloc_reserve_space() free the allocated extent_changeset to get
rid of the allocated memory. The issue currently only happens in the direct
IO write path, but only after 65b3c08606e5 (“btrfs: fix ENOSPC failure when
attempting direct IO write into NOCOW range”), and also at
defrag_one_locked_target(). Every other place is always calling
extent_changeset_free() even if its call to btrfs_delalloc_reserve_space()
or btrfs_check_data_free_space() has failed.
