From b30a337ca27c4f40439e4bfb290cba5f88d73bb7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ming Lei Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2016 08:46:31 +0800 Subject: block: partition: initialize percpuref before sending out KOBJ_ADD The initialization of partition's percpu_ref should have been done before sending out KOBJ_ADD uevent, which may cause userspace to read partition table. So the uninitialized percpu_ref may be accessed in data path. This patch fixes this issue reported by Naveen.
