Fix several mempolicy leaks in the tmpfs mount logic. These leaks are
slow - on the order of one object leaked per mount attempt.
Leak 1 (umount doesn't free mpol allocated in mount):
while true; do
mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt
umount /mnt
done
Leak 2 (errors parsing remount options will leak mpol):
mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M nodev /mnt
while true; do
mount -o remount,mpol=interleave,size=x /mnt 2> /dev/null
done
umount /mnt
Leak 3 (multiple mpol per mount leak mpol):
while true; do
mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt
umount /mnt
done
This patch fixes all of the above. I could have broken the patch into
three pieces but is seemed easier to review as one.
