Subject: [PATCH] mbcache: fix to detect failure of register_shrinker
Date: Mon, 16 May 2016 23:16:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463411798-2597-1-git-send-email-chao@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Chao Yu <yuchao0@huawei.com>
register_shrinker in mb_cache_create may fail due to no memory. This
patch fixes to do the check of return value of register_shrinker and
handle the error case, otherwise mb_cache_create may return with no
error, but losing the inner shrinker.
