Subject: [PATCH] ramfs: fix double freeing s_fs_info on failed mount
Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2009 14:16:50 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090407061650.GA31745@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090407060309.GA21788@elte.hu>

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

If ramfs mount fails, s_fs_info will be freed twice in ramfs_fill_super()
and ramfs_kill_sb(), leading to kernel oops.

Consolidate and beautify the code.
Make sure s_fs_info and s_root are in known good states.
