There is a problem that nbd_handle_reply() might access freed request:
1) At first, a normal io is submitted and completed with scheduler:
internel_tag = blk_mq_get_tag -> get tag from sched_tags
blk_mq_rq_ctx_init
sched_tags->rq[internel_tag] = sched_tag->static_rq[internel_tag]
...
blk_mq_get_driver_tag
__blk_mq_get_driver_tag -> get tag from tags
tags->rq[tag] = sched_tag->static_rq[internel_tag]
So, both tags->rq[tag] and sched_tags->rq[internel_tag] are pointing
to the request: sched_tags->static_rq[internal_tag]. Even if the
io is finished.
2) nbd server send a reply with random tag directly:
recv_work
nbd_handle_reply
blk_mq_tag_to_rq(tags, tag)
rq = tags->rq[tag]
3) if the sched_tags->static_rq is freed:
blk_mq_sched_free_requests
blk_mq_free_rqs(q->tag_set, hctx->sched_tags, i)
-> step 2) access rq before clearing rq mapping
blk_mq_clear_rq_mapping(set, tags, hctx_idx);
__free_pages() -> rq is freed here
4) Then, nbd continue to use the freed request in nbd_handle_reply
Fix the problem by get 'q_usage_counter' before blk_mq_tag_to_rq(),
thus request is ensured not to be freed because 'q_usage_counter' is
not zero.
