From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2012 01:46:37 +0000 (+1100) Subject: md/bitmap: ensure to load bitmap when creating via sysfs. X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4474ca42e2577563a919fd3ed782e2ec55bf11a2;p=linux-beck.git md/bitmap: ensure to load bitmap when creating via sysfs. When commit 69e51b449d383e (md/bitmap: separate out loading a bitmap...) created bitmap_load, it missed calling it after bitmap_create when a bitmap is created through the sysfs interface. So if a bitmap is added this way, we don't allocate memory properly and can crash. This is suitable for any -stable release since 2.6.35.
