At the moment I'm not involved with mainline. The patch resulted from the hunt for another problem and was accepted by SuSE. They told me that this would be relevant for mainline also. So I posted it but didn't check mainline for changes :-( Thus, here is the third revision of the patch that now is suited for mainline. Sorry for the noise. Thank you. Bodo ------------------------------- From: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2013 14:35:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sg: fix blk_get_queue usage If blk_queue_get() in st_probe fails, disk->queue must not be set to SDp->request_queue, as that would result in put_disk() dropping a not taken reference. Thus, disk->queue should be set only after a successful blk_queue_get(). 2nd revised patch due to hints from Kai Makisara and Joe Lawrence. Now this should be suited for mainline.
