[PATCH 4.1 097/159] IB/srp: Stop the scsi_eh_<n> and scsi_tmf_<n> threads if login fails

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Sep 26 2015 - 17:36:50 EST


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

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

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bc44bd1d864664f3658352c6aaaa02557d49165d upstream.

scsi_host_alloc() not only allocates memory for a SCSI host but also
creates the scsi_eh_<n> kernel thread and the scsi_tmf_<n> workqueue.
Stop these threads if login fails by calling scsi_host_put().

Reported-by: Konstantin Krotov <kkv@xxxxxxxx>
Fixes: fb49c8bbaae7 ("Remove an extraneous scsi_host_put() from an error path")
