Subject: MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available
From: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit e3620a3ad52609f64a2402e4b59300afb4b83b77 upstream.
MD RAID5: Fix kernel oops when RAID4/5/6 is used via device-mapper
Commit a9add5d (v3.8-rc1) added blktrace calls to the RAID4/5/6 driver.
However, when device-mapper is used to create RAID4/5/6 arrays, the
mddev->gendisk and mddev->queue fields are not setup. Therefore, calling
things like trace_block_bio_remap will cause a kernel oops. This patch
conditionalizes those calls on whether the proper fields exist to make
the calls. (Device-mapper will call trace_block_bio_remap on its own.)
This patch is suitable for the 3.8.y stable kernel.
