From 3bf10418675cb424724b5cb9d7725b234defe1fd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Zefan Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2008 09:24:37 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: async-thread: fix possible memory leak When kthread_run() returns failure, this worker hasn't been added to the list, so btrfs_stop_workers() won't free it.
