Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: fix NULL dereference on q->elevator in blk_mq_elv_switch_none
Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2023 21:23:54 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230616132354.415109-1-ming.lei@redhat.com> (raw)

After grabbing q->sysfs_lock, q->elevator may become NULL because of
elevator switch.

Fix the NULL dereference on q->elevator by checking it with lock.
