Subject: Fix error paths if md_probe fails.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc9~82^2
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9bbbca3a0ee09293108b67835c6bdf6196d7bcb3;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

Fix error paths if md_probe fails.

md_probe can fail (e.g. alloc_disk could fail) without
returning an error (as it alway returns NULL).
So when we call mddev_find immediately afterwards, we need
to check that md_probe actually succeeded.  This means checking
that mdev->gendisk is non-NULL.
