SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] coda: fix reference counting in coda_file_mmap error path
From
Looks good to me.

I'm also maintaining an out of tree coda module build that people sometimes use, which has workarounds for differences between the various kernel versions.

Do you have a reference to the corresponding mmap_region change? If it is merged already I'll probably be able to find it. Is this mmap_region change expected to be backported to any lts kernels?
