    [PATCH] fix 2.5.45 initrd breakage · f208c0ee
    Alexander Viro authored
    OK, that's my f*ckup in rd.c (not on initrd path, actually) + couple of
    f*ckups from Pat (mine: forgot to bump ->bd_count in rd_open(), Pat's:
    dropped reference to gendisk on del_gendisk(), resulting in use of
    kfree'd object + tried to remove a symlink that didn't exit).
    
    This fixes these.  It also changes order of blkdev_put()/del_gendisk()
    in initrd_release() - better safe than sorry.
    
    It got initrd working on my boxen...
