UAF in blk_add_rq_to_plug()?

static void blk_add_rq_to_plug(struct blk_plug *plug, struct request *rq)
{
        struct request *last = rq_list_peek(&plug->mq_list);

Suppose it's not NULL...

        if (!plug->rq_count) {
                trace_block_plug(rq->q);
        } else if (plug->rq_count >= blk_plug_max_rq_count(plug) ||
                   (!blk_queue_nomerges(rq->q) &&
                    blk_rq_bytes(last) >= BLK_PLUG_FLUSH_SIZE)) {
... and we went here:
                blk_mq_flush_plug_list(plug, false);
All requests, including the one last points to, might get fed ->queue_rq()
here.  At which point there seems to be nothing to prevent them getting
completed and freed on another CPU, possibly before we return here.

                trace_block_plug(rq->q);
        }

        if (!plug->multiple_queues && last && last->q != rq->q)
... and here we dereference last.

Shouldn't we reset last to NULL after the call of blk_mq_flush_plug_list()
above?
