Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: test for valid bdev before kobj removal in btrfs_rm_device
Date: Mon, 07 Jul 2014 12:34:49 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <53BADA39.3020504@redhat.com> (raw)
commit 99994cd btrfs: dev delete should remove sysfs entry
added a btrfs_kobj_rm_device, which dereferences device->bdev...
right after we check whether device->bdev might be NULL.
I don't honestly know if it's possible to have a NULL device->bdev
here, but assuming that it is (given the test), we need to move
the kobject removal to be under that test.
(Coverity spotted this)

If it's not possible for bdev to be null, then the test should just
be removed, but that's above my current btrfs pay grade. ;)
