Syzbot reported a general protection fault in the function

The issue is that the variable drv_tags is NULL, and this
originates from the struct blk_mq_tag_set. The dashboard link for this
issue is :
syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=c3ce4caa4fc58c156d4903984131cdfa38eee354

This patch fixes the above bug, but there is another syzbot bug which is
related to this and getting triggered after the call to
blk_mq_clear_rq_mapping(). As a result, I cannot determine if the issue
is really solved. The link to other issue:
syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=7643cea70f1d0ce15f5f4bc39488918837ad4233

Please provide feedback/suggestions on the same.

I don't see how drv_tags could be NULL without triggering a race condition. Please take a look at the nbd driver to see whether the root cause is perhaps in that driver instead of in the block layer core.

Thanks,

Bart.
