In blkdev_get() we call __blkdev_get() to do some internal jobs and if there is some errors in __blkdev_get(), the bdput() is called which means we have released the refcount of the bdev (actually the refcount of the bdev inode). This means we cannot access bdev after that point. But accually bdev is still accessed in blkdev_get() after calling __blkdev_get(). This may leads to use-after-free if the refcount is the last one we released in __blkdev_get().
