[PATCH 1/2] block: shutdown blktrace in case of fatal signal pending

From: Ming Lei
Date: Tue Mar 23 2021 - 04:15:52 EST


blktrace may allocate lots of memory, if the process is terminated
by user or OOM, we need to provide one chance to remove the trace
buffer, otherwise memory leak may be caused.

Fix the issue by shutdown blktrace in case of task exiting in
blkdev_close().
