Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: Fix a use-after-free
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2014 14:18:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <54523AA4.9010307@acm.org> (raw)

Since the tag set structure can be embedded in a structure that
is freed before the last queue put occurs (e.g. the SCSI host
structure), the block layer must not access the tag set after the
SCSI host structure has been freed. This patch avoids that the
following kernel oops is triggered with memory poisoning enabled:
