Subject: [PATCH] zsmalloc: fix zs_init cpu notifier error handling
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2014 21:57:06 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1415969826-6416-1-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> (raw)

Mahendran Ganesh reported that zpool-enabled zsmalloc should not
call zpool_unregister_driver() from zs_init() if cpu notifier
registration has failed, because error handling is performed
before we register the driver via zpool_register_driver() call.

Factor out cpu notifier registration and unregistration code and
fix zs_init() error handling.
