[ Upstream commit 5363ee9d110e139584c2d92a0b640bc210588506 ]
Filesystems can write to disk from page reclaim with __GFP_FS
set. Marc found a case where scsi_realloc_sdev_budget_map() ends up in
page reclaim with GFP_KERNEL, where it could try to take filesystem
locks again, leading to a deadlock.
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.13.0 #1 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
kswapd0/70 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff8881025d5d78 (&q->q_usage_counter(io)){++++}-{0:0}, at: blk_mq_submit_bio+0x461/0x6e0
but task is already holding lock:
ffffffff81ef5f40 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: balance_pgdat+0x9f/0x760
The full lockdep splat can be found in Marc's report:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2025/1/24/1101
Avoid the potential deadlock by doing the allocation with GFP_NOIO, which
prevents both filesystem and block layer recursion.

[ Upstream commit 5233e3235dec3065ccc632729675575dbe3c6b8a ]
A null dereference or oops exception will eventually occur when qla1280.c
driver is compiled with DEBUG_QLA1280 enabled and ql_debug_level > 2. I
think its clear from the code that the intention here is sg_dma_len(s) not
length of sg_next(s) when printing the debug info.
