Subject: [PATCH] dm-kcopyd: Correctly free requests
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2011 12:15:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110826101542.GB20197@wavehammer.waldi.eu.org> (raw)

kcopyd only frees the requests if the master job information is set up
correctly, but it was not in the recently added path. This leads to many
unfreed slabs during snapshot usage.
