[PATCH] ext4: Unregister features interface on module unload

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

 



Ext4 features interface was not properly unregistered which led to
problems while unloading/reloading ext4 module. This commit fixes that by
adding proper kobject unregistration code into ext4_exit_fs() as well as
fail-path of ext4_init_fs()
