From: Xiubo Li <xiu...@redhat.com> [ Upstream commit 862488105b84ca744b3d8ff131e0fcfe10644be1 ]
1. nbd_put takes the mutex and drops nbd->ref to 0. It then does idr_remove and drops the mutex. 2. nbd_genl_connect takes the mutex. idr_find/idr_for_each fails to find an existing device, so it does nbd_dev_add. 3. just before the nbd_put could call nbd_dev_remove or not finished totally, but if nbd_dev_add try to add_disk, we can hit: debugfs: Directory 'nbd1' with parent 'block' already present! This patch will make sure all the disk add/remove stuff are done by holding the nbd_index_mutex lock.
