+Subject: [PATCH] fs/locks.c: Fix lease_init (CVE-2006-1860)
+
+It is insane to be giving lease_init() the task of freeing the lock it is
+supposed to initialise, given that the lock is not guaranteed to be
+allocated on the stack. This causes lockups in fcntl_setlease().
+Problem diagnosed by Daniel Hokka Zakrisson <daniel@hozac.com>
+
+Also fix a slab leak in __setlease() due to an uninitialised return value.
+Problem diagnosed by Björn Steinbrink.
