Re: local denial-of-service with file leases

I don't have a good mechanism for testing leases, but this should fix
the leak.  Mind testing?

the test program of course passes, but now samba hangs when reading a file (mount -t cifs from the same machine). 2.6.14.1 reads the file but leaks memory.

Sorry, it doesn't hang, it's just very slow (3Mbit/sec over loopback), but that's not because of the leases AFAICT.
