rbd_dev_unprobe() is supposed to undo most of rbd_dev_image_probe(),
including rbd_dev_header_info(), which means that rbd_dev_header_info()
isn't supposed to be called after rbd_dev_unprobe().
However, rbd_dev_image_release() calls rbd_dev_unprobe() before
rbd_unregister_watch(). This is racy because a header update notify
can sneak in:
"rbd unmap" thread ceph-watch-notify worker
rbd_dev_image_release()
rbd_dev_unprobe()
free and zero out header
rbd_watch_cb()
rbd_dev_refresh()
rbd_dev_header_info()
read in header
The same goes for "rbd map" because rbd_dev_image_probe() calls
rbd_dev_unprobe() on errors. In both cases this results in a memory
leak.

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.
