The comment above blk_mq_wait_for_tag_iter() needs to be updated but I
believe that the code is fine. Waiting for bt_tags_iter() to finish
should be sufficient to fix the UAF. What matters is that the pointer
read by rcu_dereference(tags->rqs[bitnr]) remains valid until the
callback function has finished. I think that is guaranteed by the
current implementation.
