[PATCH v5 3/3] block: Ensure that a request queue is dissociated from the cgroup controller

From: Bart Van Assche <hidden>
Date: 2018-08-09 17:19:11
Also in: stable
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

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:
