In case nvme_sysfs_delete() is called by the user before taking the ctrl reference count, the ctrl may be freed during the creation and cause the bug. Take the reference as soon as the controller is externally visible, which is done by cdev_device_add() in nvme_init_ctrl(). Also take the reference count at the core layer instead of taking it on each transport separately.

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.
