From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit a5d60783df61fbb67b7596b8a0f6b4b2e05251d5 ] Move log_one_block()'s atomic_inc(&lc->io_blocks) before bio_alloc() to fix a bug that the target hangs if bio_alloc() fails. The error path does put_io_block(lc), so atomic_inc(&lc->io_blocks) must occur before invoking the error path to avoid underflow of lc->io_blocks.
