blk-mq: fix deadlock in blk_mq_register_disk() error path
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
If we fail registering any of the hardware queues, we call
into blk_mq_unregister_disk() with the hotplug mutex already
held. Since blk_mq_unregister_disk() attempts to acquire the
same mutex, we end up in a less than happy place.
