Hi all,
This v8 series follows up on v7 of the
"scsi: sd: Fix build warning in sd_revalidate_disk()" patches.

Based on Bart’s feedback, I have addressed the following in v8:
Changes in v8:
- Patch 1/2:
* Reverse the order of kfree() calls to follow the conventional
opposite-of-kmalloc() order.
* Added Bart Van Assche’s Reviewed-by tag.
- Patch 2/2:
* Removed the unused ‘err’ variable initializer.
As before, the first patch fixes the stack usage warning by moving a
large struct off the stack (with Fixes and Cc: stable tags). The second
patch then simplifies sd_revalidate_disk() by making it return void.
Many thanks to Bart and Damien for their reviews and guidance.
