md: Free resources in __md_stop
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
If md_run() fails after ->active_io is initialized, then percpu_ref_exit
is called in error path. However, later md_free_disk will call
percpu_ref_exit again which leads to a panic because of null pointer
dereference. It can also trigger this bug when resources are initialized
but are freed in error path, then will be freed again in md_free_disk.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

For creating raid device, md raid calls do_md_run->md_run, dm raid calls
md_run. We alloc those memory in md_run. For stopping raid device, md raid
calls do_md_stop->__md_stop, dm raid calls md_stop->__md_stop. So we can
free those memory resources in __md_stop.
