Subject: [PATCH v6 7/8] scsi: core: Remove the put_device() call from scsi_device_get()
Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2022 15:44:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220929224421.587465-8-bvanassche@acm.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220929224421.587465-1-bvanassche@acm.org>

scsi_device_get() may be called from atomic context, e.g. by
shost_for_each_device(). A later patch will allow put_device() to sleep
for SCSI devices. Hence this patch that removes the put_device() call
from scsi_device_get().

According to Rusty Russell's "Module Refcount and Stuff mini-FAQ",
calling module_put() from atomic context is allowed since considerable
time. See also https://lkml.org/lkml/2002/11/18/330.
