There is a repeating code section in the parent function after calling btrfs_alloc_device(), as below: name = rcu_string_strdup(path, GFP_...); if (!name) { btrfs_free_device(device); return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM); } rcu_assign_pointer(device->name, name); Except in add_missing_dev() for obvious reasons. This patch consolidates that repeating code into the btrfs_alloc_device() itself so that the parent function doesn't have to duplicate code. This consolidation also helps to review issues regarding RCU lock violation with device->name. Parent function device_list_add() and add_missing_dev() use GFP_NOFS for the allocation, whereas the rest of the parent functions use GFP_KERNEL, so bring the NOFS allocation context using memalloc_nofs_save() in the function device_list_add() and add_missing_dev() is already doing it.
