[PATCH 3.16 297/357] IB/qib: Correct reference counting in debugfs qp_stats

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

 



3.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mike Marciniszyn <mike.marciniszyn@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 85cbb7c728bf39c45a9789b88c9471c0d7a58b0e upstream.

This particular reference count is not needed with the rcu protection,
and the current code leaks a reference count, causing a hang in
qib_qp_destroy().
