When a SD card is hot removed without umount, del_gendisk() will call bdi_unregister() without destroying/freeing it. This leaves the bdi in the bdi->dev = NULL, bdi->wb.task = NULL, bdi->bdi_list removed state. When sync(2) gets the bdi before bdi_unregister() and calls bdi_queue_work() after the unregister, trace_writeback_queue will be dereferencing the NULL bdi->dev. Fix it with a simple test for NULL.
