[PATCH 2/2] floppy: Fix a crash during rmmod

From: Vivek Goyal
Date: Mon Jan 30 2012 - 10:00:44 EST


floppy driver does not call add_disk() on all the drives hence we don't take
gendisk reference on request queue for these drives. Don't call put_disk()
with disk->queue set, otherwise we try to put the reference we never took.
