Subject: [PATCH 13/18] powerpc/spufs: Fix memory leak on implicit gangs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Disposition: inline
Message-Id: <200812101703.39179.adetsch@br.ibm.com>

If the context has no explicit gang, there is no spufs gang
directory, whose deletion would lead to a put_spu_context.
So, we need to perform a put_spu_context operation after
the context was allocated, or else the gang would never be
freeded.
