Subject: mtip32xx: Fix for rmmod crash when drive is in FTL rebuild

From: Asai Thambi SP <[email protected]>

commit 59cf70e236c96594d9f1e065755d8fce9df5356b upstream.

When FTL rebuild is in progress, alloc_disk() initializes the disk but device node will be created by add_disk() only after successful completion of FTL rebuild. So, skip deletion of device node in removal path when FTL rebuild is in progress.
