[PATCH] blk-ioc: protect ioc_destroy_icq() by 'queue_lock'

From: Yu Kuai

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, icq is tracked by both request_queue(icq->q_node) and
task(icq->ioc_node), and ioc_clear_queue() from elevator exit is not
safe because it can access the list without protection:

ioc_clear_queue ioc_release_fn
lock queue_lock
list_splice
/* move queue list to a local list */
unlock queue_lock
/*
* lock is released, the local list
* can be accessed through task exit.
*/

lock ioc->lock
while (!hlist_empty)
icq = hlist_entry
lock queue_lock
ioc_destroy_icq
delete icq->ioc_node
while (!list_empty)
icq = list_entry() list_del icq->q_node
/*
* This is not protected by any lock,
* list_entry concurrent with list_del
* is not safe.
*/

unlock queue_lock
unlock ioc->lock

Fix this problem by protecting list 'icq->q_node' by queue_lock from
ioc_clear_queue().
