Hi Guys,
Did this patch have been forgotten? So, ping...
Thanks,

delete_partition() clears the cached last_lookup partition. However
the .last_lookup cache may be overwritten by one IO path after
it is cleared from delete_partition(). Then another IO path may
use the cached deleting partition after __delete_partition() is
called, then use-after-free is triggered on the cached partition.
Fixes the issue by the following approach:
1) always get the partition's refcount via hd_struct_try_get() before
setting .last_lookup
2) move clearing .last_lookup from delete_partition() to
__delete_partition() which is release handle of the partition's
percpu-refcount, so that no IO path can overwrite .last_lookup after it
is cleared in __delete_partition().
It is one candidate approach of Yufen's patch[1] which adds overhead
in fast path by indirect lookup which may introduce one extra cacheline
in IO path. Also this patch relies on percpu-refcount's protection, and
it is easier to understand and verify.
