So I'm also not aware of any particular breakage this would cause. However logically the freeing of request mempools really belongs to blk_release_queue() so it seems a bit dumb to move blk_exit_rl() just because SCSI stores the fact from which slab cache it has allocated the sense buffer in a structure (shost) that it frees under its hands by the time blk_release_queue() is called. :-| Honza -- Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxxx> SUSE Labs, CR
