Coverity reported a new defect after this change (commit 60aaf9338545) -
passing a singleton pointer as the worker_groups parameter to
alloc_thread_groups() which expects an array pointer.  But actually it
looks like it should still be a singleton pointer and
alloc_thread_groups() is broken:

-       conf->worker_groups = kzalloc(sizeof(struct r5worker_group) *
-                               conf->group_cnt, GFP_NOIO);
-       if (!conf->worker_groups || !workers) {
+       workers = kzalloc(size * *group_cnt, GFP_NOIO);
+       *worker_groups = kzalloc(sizeof(struct r5worker_group) *
+                               *group_cnt, GFP_NOIO);
+       if (!*worker_groups || !workers) {
                kfree(workers);
-               kfree(conf->worker_groups);
-               conf->worker_groups = NULL;
+               kfree(*worker_groups);
                return -ENOMEM;
        }
 
-       for (i = 0; i < conf->group_cnt; i++) {
+       for (i = 0; i < *group_cnt; i++) {
                struct r5worker_group *group;
 
-               group = &conf->worker_groups[i];
+               group = worker_groups[i];

This assignment should, I think, be:

		group = &(*worker_groups)[i];

or equivalently:

		group = *worker_groups + i;
