From c98b2cc29af8e84e7364b53e9bb4cc7cfaf62555 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2011 18:52:16 +0100 Subject: block: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() in exit_io_context() 6e736be7 "block: make ioc get/put interface more conventional and fix race on alloction" added WARN_ON_ONCE() in exit_io_context() which triggers if !PF_EXITING. All tasks hitting exit_io_context() from task exit should have PF_EXITING set but task struct tearing down after fork failure calls into the function without PF_EXITING, triggering the condition.
