    Close race in md_probe · f48ed538
    Neil Brown 提交于
    There is a possible race in md_probe.  If two threads call md_probe
    for the same device, then one could exit (having checked that
    ->gendisk exists) before the other has called kobject_init_and_add,
    thus returning an incomplete kobj which will cause problems when
    we try to add children to it.
    
    So extend the range of protection of disks_mutex slightly to
    avoid this possibility.
