      dm mpath: check if scsi_dh module already loaded before trying to load · 510193a2
      Mike Snitzer authored
      If the requested scsi_dh module is already loaded then skip
      request_module().
      
      Multipath table loads can hang in an unnecessary __request_module.

      dm thin: fix unprotected use of prepared_discards list · c3a0ce2e
      Mike Snitzer authored
      Fix two places in commit 104655fd ("dm thin: support discards") that
      didn't use pool->lock to protect against concurrent changes to the
      prepared_discards list.
      
      Without this fix, thin_endio() can race with process_discard(), leading
      to concurrent list_add()s that result in the processes locking up with
      an error like the following:
      
      WARNING: at lib/list_debug.c:32 __list_add+0x8f/0xa0()

      list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffff880323b96140), but was ffff8801d2c48440. (next=ffff8801d2c485c0).

      dm thin: reinstate missing mempool_free in cell_release_singleton · 03aaae7c
      Mike Snitzer authored
      Fix a significant memory leak inadvertently introduced during
      simplification of cell_release_singleton() in commit
      6f94a4c4 ("dm thin: fix stacked bi_next
      usage").
      
      A cell's hlist_del() must be accompanied by a mempool_free().
      Use __cell_release() to do this, like before.
