[PATCH v8 2/3] Staging: zram: Fix decrement of variable by calling bdput()

From: Rashika Kheria
Date: Wed Oct 30 2013 - 09:10:52 EST


As suggested by Jerome Marchand "The code in reset_store get the block device
(bdget_disk()) but it does not put it (bdput()) when it's done using it.
The usage count is therefore incremented but never decremented."

This patch also puts bdput() for all error cases.
