From 0bccc3722bdd88e8ae995e77ef9f7b77ee4cbdee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Golle Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2021 22:45:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mtd: blktrans: call add disks after mtd device To: linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org Cc: Vignesh Raghavendra , Richard Weinberger , Miquel Raynal , David Woodhouse Calling device_add_disk while holding mtd_table_mutex leads to deadlock in case part_bits!=0 as block partition parsers will try to open the newly created disks, trying to acquire mutex once again. Move device_add_disk to additional function called after add partitions of an MTD device have been added and locks have been released.
