__ublk_destroy_dev() is called for handling error in ublk_add_dev(), but either tagset isn't allocated or mutex isn't initialized. So fix the issue by letting replacing ublk_add_dev with a ublk_add_tag_set function that is much more limited in scope and instead unwind every single step directly in ublk_ctrl_add_dev. To allow for this refactor the device freeing so that there is a helper for freeing the device number instead of coupling that with freeing the mutex and the memory. Note that this now copies the dev_info to userspace before adding the character device. This not only simplifies the erro handling in ublk_ctrl_add_dev, but also means that the character device can only be seen by userspace if the device addition succeeded. Based on a patch from Ming Lei.

README
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.
