From 7c0990c7ee988aa193abbb7da3faeb9279146dbf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nikanth Karthikesan Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2008 10:20:23 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Do not free io context when taking recursive faults in do_exit When taking recursive faults in do_exit, if the io_context is not null, exit_io_context() is being called. But it might decrement the refcount more than once. It is better to leave this task alone.
