From 7c90aaee7aa2e023124f1861dea98347e4864a84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vegard Nossum Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2013 13:00:14 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] xen/blkback: fix reference counting If the permission check fails, we drop a reference to the blkif without having taken it in the first place. The bug was introduced in commit 604c499cbbcc3d5fe5fb8d53306aa0fae1990109 (xen/blkback: Check device permissions before allowing OP_DISCARD).
