[PATCH 9/10] dm: fix block device initialisation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Jeff Mahoney <[email protected]>

In alloc_dev(), we register the device with the block layer and then
continue to initialize the device.  But register_disk() makes
the device available to be opened before we have completed
initialising it.

This patch moves the final bits of the initialization above the disk
registration.
