But we do support calling freeze_bdev on a device without a superblock, and you would leak bd_fsfreeze_count for that case and wrongly return -EINVAL on unthaw for these now. > error = thaw_super(sb); > - if (error) { > + if (error) > bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count++; > - mutex_unlock(&bdev->bd_fsfreeze_mutex); > - return error; > - } Ok, useful cleanup. > out: > mutex_unlock(&bdev->bd_fsfreeze_mutex); > - return 0; > + return error; And this is the actual fix of course, also looks good. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
