Proposed patch
The problem is the ordering of creating the entry in the directory and allocating the file struct to reference the file. The file struct was getting allocated second, but should be allocated before the directory entry is created. Thus, if the allocation fails, then the error can be returned without creating the directory entry. Created attachment 119024 [details]
