3.16.40-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Keith Busch <[email protected]> commit d48756228ee9161ac8836b346589a43fabdc9f3c upstream. The nvme_remove function tears down all allocated resources in the correct order, so no need to free queues on error during initialization. This fixes possible use-after-free errors when queues are still associated with a blk-mq hctx.
