Subject: [PATCH 3.2 16/24] Drivers: hv: vmbus: incorrect device name is printed when child device is unregistered
Date: Tue, 03 Mar 2015 22:11:28 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <lsq.1425420688.822544092@decadent.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <lsq.1425420688.806916072@decadent.org.uk>

3.2.68-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Fernando Soto <fsoto@bluecatnetworks.com>

commit 84672369ffb98a51d4ddf74c20a23636da3ad615 upstream.

Whenever a device is unregistered in vmbus_device_unregister (drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.c), the device name in the log message may contain garbage as the memory has already been freed by the time pr_info is called. Log example:
 [ 3149.170475] hv_vmbus: child device àõsèè0_5 unregistered

By logging the message just before calling device_unregister, the correct device name is printed:
[ 3145.034652] hv_vmbus: child device vmbus_0_5 unregistered

Also changing register & unregister messages to debug to avoid unnecessarily cluttering the kernel log.
