[2.6.22 PATCH 05/26] dm crypt: fix avoid cloned bio ref after free

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: olaf.kirch@xxxxxxxxxx

Do not access the bio after generic_make_request

We should never access a bio after generic_make_request - there's
no guarantee it still exists.
