Weird -- when booting the Debian machine into mainline kernel v6.10-rc2
with "block: fix request.queuelist usage in flush" applied on top, it
crashes reliably for me. The machine having its root on LVM seems to be
essential to reproduce the crash, though.

Maybe the fact that I'm running the Debian machine virtualized makes the
crash more likely to trigger. I'll try to reproduce on bare metal to
narrow down the reproducer and get back to you.

I used mainline kernel v6.10-rc2 as base and applied:

- "block: fix request.queuelist usage in flush"
- Your `list_del_init` addition from above

and if I boot the Debian machine into this kernel, I do not get the
crash anymore.

Happy to run more tests for you, just let me know.

Thanks!
