4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 672a2c87c83649fb0167202342ce85af9a3b4f1c ] It is invalid to call del_gendisk() when disk->queue is NULL. Fix error handling in axon_ram_probe() to avoid doing that. Also del_gendisk() does not drop a reference to gendisk allocated by alloc_disk(). That has to be done by put_disk(). Add that call where needed.
