md: check command validity early in md_ioctl().
Verify that the cmd parameter passed to md_ioctl() is valid before doing anything. This fixes mddev->hold_active being set to 0 when an invalid ioctl command is passed to md_ioctl() before the array has been configured. Clearing mddev->hold_active in that case can lead to a livelock situation when an invalid ioctl number is given to md_ioctl() by a process when the mddev is currently being opened by another process: Process 1 Process 2 --------- --------- md_alloc() mddev_find() -> returns a new mddev with hold_active == UNTIL_IOCTL add_disk() -> sends KOBJ_ADD uevent (sees KOBJ_ADD uevent for device) md_open() md_ioctl(INVALID_IOCTL) -> returns ENODEV and clears mddev->hold_active md_release() md_put() -> deletes the mddev as hold_active is 0 md_open() mddev_find() -> returns a newly allocated mddev with mddev->gendisk == NULL -> returns with ERESTARTSYS (kernel restarts the open syscall) Signed-off-by: Nicolas Schichan <nschichan@freebox.fr> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
