[PATCH v2 1/2] block,scsi: verify return pointer from blk_get_request

[Joe Lawrence]

The blk-core dead queue checks introduce an error scenario to
blk_get_request that returns NULL if the request queue has been
shutdown. This affects the behavior for __GFP_WAIT callers, who should
verify the return value before dereferencing.
