Is this really safe? __module_get sais it needs a non-zero refcount to start with, but scsi_device_get is the only thing every incrementing the refcount on the module pointer in the scsi host template, so exactly that case can happen easily. There's not assert actually hardcoding the assumption, so I'm not sure if requirement the comment really just is nice to have or a strong requirement. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
