GFS2 passes the inode buffer head (dibh) from gfs2_iomap_begin to
gfs2_iomap_end in iomap->private. It sets that private pointer in
gfs2_iomap_get. Users of gfs2_iomap_get other than gfs2_iomap_begin
would have to release iomap->private, but this isn't done correctly,
leading to a leak of buffer head references.
To fix this, move the code for setting iomap->private from
gfs2_iomap_get to gfs2_iomap_begin.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
