I don't think this is the root cause.  I think q is non-NULL but has
already been released, so we're just getting a NULL deref on the actual
list head.

Does this fix it?  It adds the refcounting at approximately the correct
places.  Of course, we'll now be trying elevator operations on an extant
queue but one whose elevator functions have been destroyed, so there are
probably additional state guards to place.
