It's the s390 only zfcp device driver.

Since we have SLUB debugging turned on the freed object tells us that it was allocated via a call to multipath_ctr() and freed via a call to free_priority_group(). FWIW, this reproduction was done with barriers off. Btw, since I cc'ed you rather late I'm not sure if you are aware of the test scenario: it's I/O stress with multipathing were paths come and go all the time. It usually takes quite a few hours before the crashes are observed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
