In fact, when raid1 array run fail, we need to do md_unregister_thread() before raid1_free().

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
