Subject: [031/165] dynamic debug: move ddebug_remove_module() down into free_module()
Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:14:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100730171502.456178805@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100730171550.GA1299@kroah.com

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com>

commit b82bab4bbe9efa7bc7177fc20620fff19bd95484 upstream.

The command

	echo "file ec.c +p" >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

causes an oops.

Move the call to ddebug_remove_module() down into free_module().  In this
way it should be called from all error paths.  Currently, we are missing
the remove if the module init routine fails.
