From 9e70592fcd87c90e9e98090d66cb79f39d740d4a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Bottomley Date: Sun, 2 Oct 2005 12:59:49 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] fix potential panic with proc on module removal There's a problem in our host release in that it calls scsi_proc_hostdir_rm(). However, if you hold a reference to the host as you remove the module, the host template (which proc uses) will be freed and the system will panic when the host device is finally released. Fix this by moving scsi_proc_hostdir_rm() to where it should be: in scsi_remove_host().
