[PATCH] ext4: unregister extents status shrinker if mount failed

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Fri Apr 19 2013 - 18:06:00 EST


If ext4_fill_super() failed after extents status shrinker
has been registered, the shrinker is left in a global list
while the memory, it sits in, is already freed.
Oops is not so bad scenario after that.

Found by Linux File System Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
