Subject: [PATCH 3.2 035/153] pktcdvd: Fix pkt_setup_dev() error path

3.2.102-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@....com>

commit 5a0ec388ef0f6e33841aeb810d7fa23f049ec4cd upstream.

Commit 523e1d399ce0 ("block: make gendisk hold a reference to its queue")
modified add_disk() and disk_release() but did not update any of the
error paths that trigger a put_disk() call after disk->queue has been
assigned. That introduced the following behavior in the pktcdvd driver
if pkt_new_dev() fails:

Kernel BUG at 00000000e98fd882 [verbose debug info unavailable]

Since disk_release() calls blk_put_queue() anyway if disk->queue != NULL,
fix this by removing the blk_cleanup_queue() call from the pkt_setup_dev()
error path.

Fixes: commit 523e1d399ce0 ("block: make gendisk hold a reference to its queue")
