[PATCH v2 2/4] ubi: ubi_init: Fix missed ubiblock cleanup in error handling path

From: Zhihao Cheng
Date: Wed Apr 10 2024 - 23:27:47 EST


The ubiblock_init called by ubi_init will register device number, but
device number is not released in error handling path of ubi_init when
ubi is loaded by inserting module (eg. attaching failure), which leads
to subsequent ubi_init calls failed by running out of device number
(dmesg shows that "__register_blkdev: failed to get major for ubiblock").
Since ubiblock_init() registers notifier and invokes notification
functions, so we can move it after ubi_init_attach() to fix the problem.

Fixes: 927c145208b0 ("mtd: ubi: attach from device tree")
