[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 17/34] dm: fix alloc_dax error handling in alloc_dev

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jan 17 2022 - 12:11:03 EST


From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d751939235b9b7bc4af15f90a3e99288a8b844a7 ]

Make sure ->dax_dev is NULL on error so that the cleanup path doesn't
trip over an ERR_PTR.
