I've taken this patch into consideration relative to DM, please see:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/snitzer/linux.git/commit/?h=wip&id=5dac86fb79697e93297edb6a316b429236d00137
Point is in my private snitzer/wip branch DM now calls
blk_cleanup_queue() before del_gendisk().
With your patch:
1) blk_cleanup_queue -> bdi_destroy -> bdi->dev = NULL;
2) del_gendisk -> bdi_unregister -> WARN_ON_ONCE(!bdi->dev)
So, in testing with DM I'm hitting bdi_unregister's WARN_ON(), are you
seeing this WARN_ON?
