blk_attempt_plug_merge() try to merge bio into request and chain them by 'bi_next', while after the bio is done inside request, we forgot to reset the 'bi_next'. This lead into BUG while removing all the underlying devices from md-raid1, the bio once go through: md_do_sync() sync_request() generic_make_request() blk_queue_bio() blk_attempt_plug_merge() CHAINED HERE will keep chained and reused by: raid1d() sync_request_write() generic_make_request() BUG_ON(bio->bi_next) After reset the 'bi_next' this can no longer happen.
