You can move the hole declaration up here.

static void nvm_exit(struct nvm_dev *dev)
{
+ struct nvm_target *t, *n;
+
if (dev->ppalist_pool)
dev->ops->destroy_dma_pool(dev->ppalist_pool);
+ down_write(&nvm_lock);
+ list_for_each_entry_safe(t, n, &dev->online_targets, list)
+ nvm_remove_target(t);
+ up_write(&nvm_lock);

list_for_each_entry_safe should be enough here.

Actually, we should properly block any creations of new targets when nvm_exit is called. To prevent new ones to be created while we clean up.

Let me know if you want to submit a patch for this. Else I'll just apply this one with the suggested changes. Thanks Tao.

nvm_free(dev);
