Your subject line is incomplete, and your commit message is even more
incomplete.

Ehm no, variable declarations go at the top.

Please try again, correcting the title/subject and ACTUALLY write a
commit message. See:

* [PATCH v2] block: add NULL checks for bic in bfq_bfqq_save_state function

When the `bic` variable is null, referencing `bfqq_data` through `bic` will
cause the program to crash. Therefore, the null check for `bic` should be
moved to the beginning of the function to prevent referencing a null pointer.

Cap at 72 char line length... And title should start with "block, bfq: ".
And should be "add NULL check", singular, see below.

> Fixed:fd571df0ac5b289af8?"block, bfq: turn bfqq_data into an array in bfq_io_cq"?

This tag is wrong, should be a shortened sha and the format is also
wrong (Fixed vs Fixes).

You're killing the empty line between variables and the comment. And why
is a_idx being moved? This is !bic being NULL, presumably?
