Linux kernel source tree
381a3ce1c0
IO operations may be needed before md_run(), such as updating metadata
after writing sysfs. Without bioset, this triggers a NULL pointer
dereference as below:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020
Call Trace:
md_update_sb+0x658/0xe00

```
mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -n2 /dev/sd[cd]
echo inactive > /sys/block/md0/md/array_state
echo 10 > /sys/block/md0/md/new_level
```
mddev_init() can only be called once per mddev, no need to test if bioset
has been initialized anymore.

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 reStructuredText 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.
