User-after-free on hctx can be triggered if the hctx is freed
in blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues().
This patch aligns to normal cleanup queue model, and will avoid this
kind of issue.
Updating nr_hw_queues is only triggered on very specific situation, so
in practice, it isn't easy to trigger.
However, if we play CPU hotplug & timeout test on nvme-loop, it should
have been easy to trigger, but nvme-loop's reset/timeout handler is simply
broken. The same test can be done on nvme-pci too, just needs real
hardware and environment and takes time...
Thanks,
