[PATCH 4.0 094/105] blk-mq: free hctx->ctxs in queues release handler

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c3b4afca7023b5aa0531912364246e67f79b3010 upstream.

Now blk_cleanup_queue() can be called before calling
del_gendisk()[1], inside which hctx->ctxs is touched
from blk_mq_unregister_hctx(), but the variable has
been freed by blk_cleanup_queue() at that time.

So this patch moves freeing of hctx->ctxs into queue's
release handler for fixing the oops reported by Stefan.
