Y. Srinivasan" <kys@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2016 16:54:02 -0800 Subject: Drivers: hv: util: Fcopy: Fix a rescind processing issue From: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 20951c7535b5e6af46bc37b7142105f716df739c upstream. Fcopy may use a char device to support the communication between the user level daemon and the driver. When the Fcopy channel is rescinded we need to make sure that the char device is fully cleaned up before we can process a new Fcopy offer from the host. Implement this logic. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
