[ 06/24] floppy: dont call alloc_ordered_workqueue inside the alloc_disk loop

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Nov 02 2012 - 13:12:31 EST


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

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

From: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski <herton.krzesinski@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b54e1f88897bcacc2cd359f48ea3b39eaf55f084 upstream.

Since commit 070ad7e ("floppy: convert to delayed work and single-thread
wq"), we end up calling alloc_ordered_workqueue multiple times inside
the loop, which shouldn't be intended. Besides the leak, other side
effect in the current code is if blk_init_queue fails, we would end up
calling unregister_blkdev even if we didn't call yet register_blkdev.

Just moved the allocation of floppy_wq before the loop, and adjusted the
code accordingly.
