[PATCH 4.18 018/145] block: Ensure that a request queue is dissociated from the cgroup controller

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxx>

commit 24ecc3585348b616993a3c4d6dc2c6b8007e358c upstream.

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:
