Subject: [MTD] Always initialise mutex in new mtd_blktrans_dev.
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ce37ab42ad8b38ef2f36c31c6b4c39b87f36b792;p=linux-beck.git

[MTD] Always initialise mutex in new mtd_blktrans_dev.

We were only initialising the mutex in the case where the new device was
automatically allocated the highest minor number. If the caller
specified a minor number, or if it filled in a free slot which was made
by a previous device deregistering, the mutex wouldn't get initialised
when we jumped out of the loop.
