[PATCH 5/7] dm-mpath: Do not touch *__clone if request allocation fails

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

 



Do not modify *__clone if blk_mq_alloc_request() fails. This makes
it easier to figure out what is going on if the caller accidentally
dereferences *__clone if blk_mq_alloc_request() failed.
