Then it calls rdev_dec_pending(rdev, mddev)\n  and bio_put(bio).\n* so, the process that waited on sb_wait and that is woken up is racing\n  with bio_put(bio).\n* if the process wins the race, it calls bioset_exit before bio_put(bio)\n  is executed.\n* bio_put(bio) attempts to free a bio into a destroyed bio set - causing\n  a crash in mempool_free.\n\nWe fix this bug by moving bio_put before atomic_dec_and_test.\n\nWe also move rdev_dec_pending before atomic_dec_and_test as suggested by\nNeil Brown.\n\nThe function md_end_flush has a similar bug - we must call bio_put before\nwe decrement the number of in-progress bios.\n\n BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000\n #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode\n #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page\n PGD 11557f0067 P4D 11557f0067 PUD 0\n Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP\n CPU: 0 PID: 73 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 6.1.0-rc3 #5\n Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014\n Workqueue: kdelayd flush_expired_bios [dm_delay]\n RIP: 0010:mempool_free+0x47/0x80\n Code: 48 89 ef 5b 5d ff e0 f3 c3 48 89 f7 e8 32 45 3f 00 48 63 53 08 48 89 c6 3b 53 04 7d 2d 48 8b 43 10 8d 4a 01 48 89 df 89 4b 08 <48> 89 2c d0 e8 b0 45 3f 00 48 8d 7b 30 5b 5d 31 c9 ba 01 00 00 00\n RSP: 0018:ffff88910036bda8 EFLAGS: 00010093\n RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff8891037b65d8 RCX: 0000000000000001\n RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000202 RDI: ffff8891037b65d8\n RBP: ffff8891447ba240 R08: 0000000000012908 R09: 00000000003d0900\n R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000173544 R12: ffff889101a14000\n R13: ffff8891562ac300 R14: ffff889102b41440 R15: ffffe8ffffa00d05\n FS:  0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88942fa00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000\n CS:  0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033\n CR2: 0000000000000000 CR3: 0000001102e99000 CR4: 00000000000006b0\n Call Trace:\n  <TASK>\n  clone_endio+0xf4/0x1c0 [dm_mod]\n  clone_endio+0xf4/0x1c0 [dm_mod]\n  __submit_bio+0x76/0x120\n  submit_bio_noacct_nocheck+0xb6/0x2a0\n  flush_expired_bios+0x28/0x2f [dm_delay]\n  process_one_work+0x1b4/0x300\n  worker_thread+0x45/0x3e0\n  ? rescuer_thread+0x380/0x380\n  kthread+0xc2/0x100\n  ? kthread_complete_and_exit+0x20/0x20\n  ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30\n  </TASK>\n Modules linked in: brd dm_delay dm_raid dm_mod af_packet uvesafb cfbfillrect cfbimgblt cn cfbcopyarea fb font fbdev tun autofs4 binfmt_misc configfs ipv6 virtio_rng virtio_balloon rng_core virtio_net pcspkr net_failover failover qemu_fw_cfg button mousedev raid10 raid456 libcrc32c async_raid6_recov async_memcpy async_pq raid6_pq async_xor xor async_tx raid1 raid0 md_mod sd_mod t10_pi crc64_rocksoft crc64 virtio_scsi scsi_mod evdev psmouse bsg scsi_common [last unloaded: brd]\n CR2: 0000000000000000\n ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---"
