[PATCH 2/4] scsi: core: Revert "Simplify LLD module reference counting"

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

 



Revert the patch series "Call blk_mq_free_tag_set() earlier" because it
introduces a deadlock if the scsi_remove_host() caller holds a reference
on a device, target or host.
