[PATCH BUGFIX 1/2] block, bfq: reset last_completed_rq_bfqq if the pointed queue is freed

From: Paolo Valente
Date: Wed Aug 07 2019 - 10:18:14 EST


Since commit 13a857a4c4e8 ("block, bfq: detect wakers and
unconditionally inject their I/O"), BFQ stores, in a per-device
pointer last_completed_rq_bfqq, the last bfq_queue that had an I/O
request completed. If some bfq_queue receives new I/O right after the
last request of last_completed_rq_bfqq has been completed, then
last_completed_rq_bfqq may be a waker bfq_queue.

But if the bfq_queue last_completed_rq_bfqq points to is freed, then
last_completed_rq_bfqq becomes a dangling reference. This commit
resets last_completed_rq_bfqq if the pointed bfq_queue is freed.

Fixes: 13a857a4c4e8 ("block, bfq: detect wakers and unconditionally inject their I/O")
