[PATCH 11/13] loop: implement ->free_disk

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

 



Ensure that the lo_device which is stored in the gendisk private
data is valid until the gendisk is freed.  Currently the loop driver
uses a lot of effort to make sure a device is not freed when it is
still in use, but to to fix a potential deadlock this will be relaxed
a bit soon.
