[ Upstream commit7a4efe182c] A problem about modprobe vhost_vsock failed is triggered with the following log given: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vhost_vsock': Device or resource busy The reason is that vhost_vsock_init() returns misc_register() directly without checking its return value, if misc_register() failed, it returns without calling vsock_core_unregister() on vhost_transport, resulting the vhost_vsock can never be installed later. A simple call graph is shown as below: vhost_vsock_init() vsock_core_register() # register vhost_transport misc_register() device_create_with_groups() device_create_groups_vargs() dev = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened # return without unregister vhost_transport Fix by calling vsock_core_unregister() when misc_register() returns error.

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.
