commit e89e8d8fcdc6751e86ccad794b052fe67e6ad619 upstream. Michal Kalderon reports a BUG that occurs just after device removal: [ 169.112490] rpcrdma: removing device qedr0 for 192.168.110.146:20049 [ 169.143909] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000010 [ 169.181837] IP: rpcrdma_dma_unmap_regbuf+0xa/0x60 [rpcrdma] The RPC/RDMA client transport attempts to allocate some resources on demand. Registered buffers are one such resource. These are allocated (or re-allocated) by xprt_rdma_allocate to hold RPC Call and Reply messages. A hardware resource is associated with each of these buffers, as they can be used for a Send or Receive Work Request. If a device is removed from under an NFS/RDMA mount, the transport layer is responsible for releasing all hardware resources before the device can be finally unplugged. A BUG results when the NFS mount hasn't yet seen much activity: the transport tries to release resources that haven't yet been allocated. rpcrdma_free_regbuf() already checks for this case, so just move that check to cover the DEVICE_REMOVAL case as well.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
