        SUBSCRIBE:
        In driver drivers/scsi/sr.c in function sr_probe:

1. In line 588 we call  alloc_disk(1);
2. If in line 593 function find_first_zero_bit returns SR_DISKS then we goto 
label fail_put (line 597).
3. In line 652 we call put_disk. But in some other drivers del_gendisk is 
called before put_disk. Why didn't we call del_gendisk before put_disk here? 
Is it an error?
