Did you acually hit a bug (invalid memory access)?
I cannot see how given the checks prior to iterating m->priority_groups:
if (!pgstr || (sscanf(pgstr, "%u%c", &pgnum, &dummy) != 1) || !pgnum ||
!m->nr_priority_groups || (pgnum > m->nr_priority_groups)) {
DMWARN("invalid PG number supplied to bypass_pg");
return -EINVAL;
}
So I have _not_ taken your "fix".
