commit 618f003199c6188e01472b03cdbba227f1dc5f24 upstream. static int kthread(void *_create) will return -ENOMEM or -EINTR in case of internal failure or kthread_stop() call happens before threadfn call. To prevent fancy error checking and make code more straightforward we moved all cleanup code out of kmmpd threadfn. Also, dropped struct mmpd_data at all. Now struct super_block is a threadfn data and struct buffer_head embedded into struct ext4_sb_info.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
