[PATCH 3.4 22/22] dm thin: fix dangling bio in process_deferred_bios error path

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun May 11 2014 - 15:27:43 EST


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

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

From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit fe76cd88e654124d1431bb662a0fc6e99ca811a5 upstream.

If unable to ensure_next_mapping() we must add the current bio, which
was removed from the @bios list via bio_list_pop, back to the
deferred_bios list before all the remaining @bios.
