[PATCH] drbd: Fix double put_ldev in receive_SyncParam on fifo_alloc failure
From: Wentao Liang
Date: Thu Jun 25 2026 - 11:06:34 EST
In receive_SyncParam(), when the fifo_alloc() call for the resync
plan buffer fails, the error path executes put_ldev(device) at line
3790 and then jumps to the disconnect label. The disconnect label
also calls put_ldev(device) when new_disk_conf is non-NULL, which
is always the case by this point (get_ldev succeeded and
new_disk_conf was allocated).
This results in a double put_ldev, causing the ldev reference count
to underflow. All other goto disconnect sites in the same function
correctly rely solely on the disconnect label to perform the single
put_ldev — the fifo_alloc failure path was the only one to
prematurely release the reference.
Remove the spurious put_ldev(device) call before goto disconnect
to fix the double put.
