Hmm. That's a different oops. It is now in scsi_prep_state_check().

At the beginning of it too. You can't see the "Code: " line in the
pictures, but the only dereference I see there is "sdev" itself being
NULL. And %cr2 is 0x640, which would seem to agree (the 'sdev'
structure is absolutely disgustingly big, and sdev->sdev_state is
indeed at an offset in that region.

That 'sdev' comes from scsi_prep_fn() doing

    struct scsi_device *sdev = q->queuedata;

is that queuedata perhaps cleared even if the queue itself stays
around due to refcounts?
