Subject: [patch] NVMe: return an error code if blk_mq_alloc_tag_set() fails
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2015 14:43:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150119144327.GE19086@mwanda> (raw)

In the current code, if blk_mq_alloc_tag_set() fails then it returns
zero (success) instead of preserving the error code.  The caller is not
expecting that and the kernel could be left in an inconsistent state.
