That way percpu_ref_exit() is safe after failing percpu_ref_init(). At least one user (cgroup_create()) had a double-free that way; there might be other similar bugs. Easier to fix in percpu_ref_init(), rather than playing whack-a-mole in sloppy users... Usual symptoms look like a messed refcounting in one of subsystems that use percpu allocations (might be percpu-refcount, might be something else). Having refcounts for two different objects share memory is Not Nice(tm)... Reported-by: syzbot+5b1e53987f858500ec00@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
