From ee5d004fd0591536a061451eba2b187092e9127c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2015 10:20:07 +1000 Subject: md: flush ->event_work before stopping array. The 'event_work' worker used by dm-raid may still be running when the array is stopped. This can result in an oops. So flush the workqueue on which it is run after detaching and before destroying the device.

Convert the error to -ENOENT. The positive error number results in bitmap_create() returning a value that is meant to be an error but doesn't look like one, so it is dereferenced as a point and causes a crash.
