blk-mq: fix null pointer dereference in blk_mq_clear_rq_mapping()
[ Upstream commit 76dd298094f484c6250ebd076fa53287477b2328 ]
Our syzkaller report a null pointer dereference, root cause is
following:
__blk_mq_alloc_map_and_rqs
set->tags[hctx_idx] = blk_mq_alloc_map_and_rqs
blk_mq_alloc_map_and_rqs
blk_mq_alloc_rqs
// failed due to oom
alloc_pages_node
// set->tags[hctx_idx] is still NULL
blk_mq_free_rqs
drv_tags = set->tags[hctx_idx];
// null pointer dereference is triggered
blk_mq_clear_rq_mapping(drv_tags, ...)
This is because commit 63064be150e4 ("blk-mq:
Add blk_mq_alloc_map_and_rqs()") merged the two steps:
1) set->tags[hctx_idx] = blk_mq_alloc_rq_map()
2) blk_mq_alloc_rqs(..., set->tags[hctx_idx])
into one step:
set->tags[hctx_idx] = blk_mq_alloc_map_and_rqs()
Since tags is not initialized yet in this case, fix the problem by
checking if tags is NULL pointer in blk_mq_clear_rq_mapping().
