[patch added to 3.12-stable] sd: get disk reference in sd_check_events()

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

 



From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit eb72d0bb84eee5d0dc3044fd17b75e7101dabb57 upstream.

sd_check_events() is called asynchronously, and might race
with device removal. So always take a disk reference when
processing the event to avoid the device being removed while
the event is processed.
