[PATCH v1 3/5] md: fail if mddev->bio_set can't be created

From: Ming Lei
Date: Fri Feb 10 2017 - 05:57:35 EST


The current behaviour is to fall back to allocate
bio from 'fs_bio_set', that isn't a correct way
because it might cause deadlock.

So this patch simply return failure if mddev->bio_set
can't be created.
