Subject: [PATCH v5 3/3] block: Ensure that a request queue is dissociated from the cgroup controller
Date: Thu,  9 Aug 2018 07:53:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180809145338.6160-4-bart.vanassche@wdc.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180809145338.6160-1-bart.vanassche@wdc.com>

Several block drivers call alloc_disk() followed by put_disk() if
something fails before device_add_disk() is called without calling
blk_cleanup_queue(). Make sure that also for this scenario a request
queue is dissociated from the cgroup controller. This patch avoids
that loading the parport_pc, paride and pf drivers triggers the
following kernel crash:

BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in pi_init+0x42e/0x580 [paride]
