4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: "Bryn M. Reeves" <[email protected]> commit 98dbc9c6c61698792e3a66f32f3bf066201d42d7 upstream. An "old" (.request_fn) DM 'struct request' stores a pointer to the associated 'struct dm_rq_target_io' in rq->special. dm_requeue_original_request(), previously named dm_requeue_unmapped_original_request(), called dm_unprep_request() to reset rq->special to NULL. But rq_end_stats() would go on to hit a NULL pointer deference because its call to tio_from_request() returned NULL. Fix this by calling rq_end_stats() _before_ dm_unprep_request() Signed-off-by: Bryn M.
