+Subject: cachefiles: fix memory leak in cachefiles_add_cache()
+
+From: Baokun Li <libaokun1@huawei.com>
+
+commit e21a2f17566cbd64926fb8f16323972f7a064444 upstream.
+
+The following memory leak was reported after unbinding /dev/cachefiles:
+
+==================================================================
+unreferenced object 0xffff9b674176e3c0 (size 192):
+ comm "cachefilesd2", pid 680, jiffies 4294881224

+==================================================================
+
+Put the reference count of cache_cred in cachefiles_daemon_unbind() to
+fix the problem. And also put cache_cred in cachefiles_add_cache() error
+branch to avoid memory leaks.
