[PATCH 1/3] blk-mq: cleanup after blk_mq_init_rq_map failures

From: Robert Elliott
Date: Thu Jul 17 2014 - 15:40:14 EST


In blk-mq.c blk_mq_alloc_tag_set, if:
set->tags = kmalloc_node()
succeeds, but one of the blk_mq_init_rq_map() calls fails,
goto out_unwind;
needs to free set->tags so the caller is not obligated
to do so. None of the current callers (null_blk,
virtio_blk, virtio_blk, or the forthcoming scsi-mq)
do so.

set->tags needs to be set to NULL after doing so,
so other tag cleanup logic doesn't try to free
a stale pointer later. Also set it to NULL
in blk_mq_free_tag_set.

Tested with error injection on the forthcoming
scsi-mq + hpsa combination.
