[PATCH 4.6 65/96] lockd: unregister notifier blocks if the service fails to come up completely

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 08 2016 - 15:28:06 EST


4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Scott Mayhew <smayhew@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cb7d224f82e41d82518e7f9ea271d215d4d08e6e upstream.

If the lockd service fails to start up then we need to be sure that the
notifier blocks are not registered, otherwise a subsequent start of the
service could cause the same notifier to be registered twice, leading to
soft lockups.
