This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled block: remove inaccurate requeue check to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: block-remove-inaccurate-requeue-check.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 667f62fc39daebd026522f4628e2b409ed55d092 Author: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Oct 20 08:21:40 2021 -0600 block: remove inaccurate requeue check [ Upstream commit 037057a5a979c7eeb2ee5d12cf4c24b805192c75 ] This check is meant to catch cases where a requeue is attempted on a request that is still inserted. It's never really been useful to catch any misuse, and now it's actively wrong. Outside of that, this should not be a BUG_ON() to begin with. Remove the check as it's now causing active harm, as requeue off the plug path will trigger it even though the request state is just fine.
