Hello Meelis,

Thank you for your report. Can you apply commit 8e6882545d8c ("scsi: Avoid
that scsi_exit_rq() triggers a use-after-free") on top of kernel v4.12 and
retest? That commit has been tagged "Cc: stable" so I hope that this patch
will be included in kernel v4.12.1. However, that kernel is not yet availab=
le
unfortunately ...

Thanks,

Bart.=
