I can't see any sensible way to "fix" the issue. Struct gendisk keeps a
reference to the requeue_queue, and a struct gendisk reference is held
as long as the block device is open. So whenever you surprise remove a
device that is open (usually by having a filesystem mounted on it),
the request_queue and it's reference to the tag structure will vastly
outlive the Scsi_Host.
Ok, so can we then please move forward with getting your patch merged ?
I've posted the patch in reply to another report and added Jens to the
Cc list. As the block maintainer he need to review and merge it.
Which patch is this?
