Subject[PATCH 3.14 043/228] aio: fix potential leak in aio_run_iocb().
Date
3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Leon Yu <chianglungyu@gmail.com>

commit 754320d6e166d3a12cb4810a452bde00afbd4e9a upstream.

iovec should be reclaimed whenever caller of rw_copy_check_uvector() returns,
but it doesn't hold when failure happens right after aio_setup_vectored_rw().

Fix that in a such way to avoid hairy goto.
