[PATCH 1/8] md: fix kobject_add error handling

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

 



Always use the deferred kobject_put from mddev_put to clean up a mddev.
To make sure that happens properly clear the hold_active on error,
and clear the ->gendisk field and put the disk manually when ->add_disk
fails to avoid a double free.

Fixes: 5e55e2f5fc95 ("[PATCH] md: convert compile time warnings into runtime warnings")
Fixes: 9be68dd7ac0e ("md: add error handling support for add_disk()")
