Hello Masami, I am testing the latest upstream kernel, your trace actually reproduces this issue. After 'blockdev --getbsz /dev/nvme0n1' returns, __blkdev_put() should have been called two times(one for partition, and the other for disk), however kprobe trace just shows one time of calling this function. If trace_printk() is added at the entry of __blkdev_put() manually, you will see that __blkdev_put() is called two times in 'blockdev --getbsz /dev/nvme0n1'. Thanks, Ming
