Prithvi Tambewagh e232269d51 io_uring: fix filename leak in __io_openat_prep() 
commit b14fad5553 upstream.

 __io_openat_prep() allocates a struct filename using getname(). However,
for the condition of the file being installed in the fixed file table as
well as having O_CLOEXEC flag set, the function returns early. At that
point, the request doesn't have REQ_F_NEED_CLEANUP flag set. Due to this,
the memory for the newly allocated struct filename is not cleaned up,
causing a memory leak.

Fix this by setting the REQ_F_NEED_CLEANUP for the request just after the
successful getname() call, so that when the request is torn down, the
filename will be cleaned up, along with other resources needing cleanup.

README 

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 reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
