From 269fd2a6f84828fd96218d164dace8c413fa5c03 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "goggin, edward" Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2005 21:45:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] device-mapper: Trigger an event when a table is deleted If anything is waiting on a device's table when the device is removed, we must first wake it up so it will release its reference. Otherwise the table's reference count will not drop to zero and the table will not get removed.
