[PATCH 2/4] Drivers: hv: vmbus: do not lose rescind offer on failure in vmbus_process_offer()

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Tue Feb 03 2015 - 12:01:06 EST


In case we hit a failure condition in vmbus_process_offer() and a rescind offer
was pending for the channel we just do free_channel() so CHANNELMSG_RELID_RELEASED
will never be send to the host. We have to follow vmbus_process_rescind_offer()
path anyway.

To support the change we need to protect list_del in vmbus_process_rescind_offer()
hitting an uninitialized list.
