From: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2018 23:08:52 +0000 (-0600) Subject: bfq-iosched: ensure to clear bic/bfqq pointers when preparing request X-Git-Tag: v4.14.39~34 X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=be10336a907253a6066d802c11b6edaf7cf397f8;p=users%2Fjedix%2Flinux-maple.git bfq-iosched: ensure to clear bic/bfqq pointers when preparing request commit 72961c4e6082be79825265d9193272b8a1634dec upstream. Even if we don't have an IO context attached to a request, we still need to clear the priv[0..1] pointers, as they could be pointing to previously used bic/bfqq structures. If we don't do so, we'll either corrupt memory on dispatching a request, or cause an imbalance in counters. Inspired by a fix from Kees.
