Subject: [PATCH] fs: fix WARN on alloc_super() fail path
Date: Wed, 4 Dec 2013 12:39:04 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386146344-17185-1-git-send-email-vdavydov@parallels.com> (raw)

On fail path alloc_super() calls destroy_super(), which issues a warning
if list_empty() returns false on the s_mounts field. That said s_mounts
should be initialized in alloc_super() before any possible failure.
