Subject: [PATCH cgroup/for-3.14] cgroup: fix fail path in cgroup_load_subsys()
Date: Thu, 12 Dec 2013 23:17:08 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386875828-5075-1-git-send-email-vdavydov@parallels.com> (raw)

Calling cgroup_unload_subsys() from cgroup_load_subsys() after
online_css() failure will result in a NULL ptr dereference on attempt to
offline_css(), because online_css() only assigns css to cgroup on
success. Let's fix that by skipping calls to offline_css() and
css_free() in cgroup_unload_subsys() if there is no css, and freeing css
in cgroup_load_subsys() on online_css() failure.
