[PATCH 1/2] ipmi: bail out if init_srcu_struct fails

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

 



In case, init_srcu_struct fails (because of memory allocation failure), we
might proceed with the driver initialization despite srcu_struct not being
entirely initialized.

Fixes: 913a89f009d9 ("ipmi: Don't initialize anything in the core until something uses it")
