From: Riccardo Mancini <rickyman7@gmail.com> stable inclusion from linux-4.19.199 commit d41308df6129905ddce9b6bcaa02c387c1edbfd0 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 2d6b74baa7147251c30a46c4996e8cc224aa2dc5 ] ASan reports a memory leak of nsinfo during the execution of # perf test "31: Lookup mmap thread" The leak is caused by a refcounted variable being replaced without dropping the refcount. This patch makes sure that the refcnt of nsinfo is decreased whenever a refcounted variable is replaced with a new value.
