From b0f5d4891ea3a80ad619312355494dc25073e219 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gulam Mohamed Date: Fri, 14 May 2021 15:18:42 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] block: fix a race between del_gendisk and BLKRRPART [ Upstream commit bc6a385132601c29a6da1dbf8148c0d3c9ad36dc ] When BLKRRPART is called concurrently with del_gendisk, the partitions rescan can create a stale partition that will never be be cleaned up. Fix this by checking the the disk is up before rescanning partitions while under bd_mutex.
