SubjectPATCH (Trivial): Fix dm_io.c oops in low memory conditions.
From
Date
Hi.

If you call drivers/md/dm-io.c:resize_pool on an empty pool and
mempool_create is unable to make the pool, the condition is not handled
correctly, resulting in an oops in mempool_destroy.

Please apply.

Regards,

Nigel
