    blk-mq: Fix a use-after-free · 45a9c9d9
    Bart Van Assche authored
    blk-mq users are allowed to free the memory request_queue.tag_set
    points at after blk_cleanup_queue() has finished but before
    blk_release_queue() has started. This can happen e.g. in the SCSI
    core. The SCSI core namely embeds the tag_set structure in a SCSI
    host structure. The SCSI host structure is freed by
    scsi_host_dev_release(). This function is called after
    blk_cleanup_queue() finished but can be called before
    blk_release_queue().
    
    This means that it is not safe to access request_queue.tag_set from
    inside blk_release_queue(). Hence remove the blk_sync_queue() call
    from blk_release_queue(). This call is not necessary - outstanding
    requests must have finished before blk_release_queue() is
    called. Additionally, move the blk_mq_free_queue() call from
    blk_release_queue() to blk_cleanup_queue() to avoid that struct
    request_queue.tag_set gets accessed after it has been freed.
    
    This patch avoids that the following kernel oops can be triggered
    when deleting a SCSI host for which scsi-mq was enabled:
