[PATCH 3.11 125/182] bdi: avoid oops on device removal

[Hsu, Chiou-lien]

Hi, Luis

Thanks!  I knew the patch is for kernel 3.10.  I am just wondering if somebody fix the same problem in order kernel such as 3.6.39.  If not,  then that is OK.

Lisa :)

I don't think commit 5acda9d12dcf ("bdi: avoid oops on device
removal") is applicable to such an old kernel.  If you look at that commit text, it says it fixes an issue introduced by commit 839a8e8660b6777e7fe4e80af1a048aebe2b5977, which is from kernel 3.10!

Cheers,
