Hi Jens,
Can we still get these in for 4.5? One is a race, the other is just error
handling.
Please pull:
git pull https://bitbucket.org/ewheelerinc/linux.git v4.5-rc6-bcache-fixes
bcache: fix race of writeback thread starting before complete initialization
bcache: cleaned up error handling around register_cache()
They look simple enough, though I generally don't like collapsing things
like this:
if ((ret = cache_alloc(sb, ca)) != 0)
it's easy to screw up, doing
ret = cache_alloc(sb, ca);
if (ret != 0)
...
is a lot more readable and harder to screw up. Can we get that cleaned
up? We can still make 4.5, I've got a bunch pending that's going out
today, and these two would have missed the boat for today anyway. But
that doesn't mean we can't get them out later this week.
