As we couldn't allocate memory to remove the device from the list, we
have to keep it in the list (technically even leaking some memory here).
What we definitively need to do is clear the ->bdev pointer, otherwise
we'll trip over a NULL-pointer in open_fs_devices().
open_fs_devices() will traverse the list and call
btrfs_open_one_device() this will fail as device->bdev is (still) set
thus latest_dev is NULL and then this 'fs_devices->latest_bdev =
latest_dev->bdev;' will blow up.
If you have a better solution I'm all ears. This is what I came up with
to tackle the problem of half initialized devices.
One thing we could do though is call btrfs_free_stale_devices() in the
error case.
Byte,
Johannes
