Linux kernel source tree
As of now fuse_dev_alloc() both allocates a fuse device and installs it in fuse_conn list. fuse_dev_alloc() can fail if fuse_device allocation fails. virtio-fs needs to initialize multiple fuse devices (one per virtio queue). It initializes one fuse device as part of call to fuse_fill_super_common() and rest of the devices are allocated and installed after that. But, we can't afford to fail after calling fuse_fill_super_common() as we don't have a way to undo all the actions done by fuse_fill_super_common(). So to avoid failures after the call to fuse_fill_super_common(), pre-allocate all fuse devices early and install them into fuse connection later. This patch provides two separate helpers for fuse device allocation and fuse device installation in fuse_conn.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
