Subject: [PATCH] block: null_blk: fix use after free
Date: Thu,  1 May 2014 15:12:36 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1398928356-24390-1-git-send-email-tom.leiming@gmail.com> (raw)

entry(cmd->ll_list) may belong to new request once end_cmd()
returns, so fix the bug with the patch.

Without the change, it is easy to observe oops when
doing null_blk(timer) test.
