From 170119ce8f880099f91eaa8b18a7b230ee9849cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Haiyang Zhang Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2019 15:32:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] hv_netvsc: Fix error handling in netvsc_attach() If rndis_filter_open() fails, we need to remove the rndis device created in earlier steps, before returning an error code. Otherwise, the retry of netvsc_attach() from its callers will fail and hang. Fixes: 467e8847a1ac ("hv_netvsc: common detach logic") Signed-off-by: Haiyang Zhang Signed-off-by: David S.
