3.19.8-ckt8 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 596f5aad2a704b72934e5abec1b1b4114c16f45b upstream. There may be lots of pending requests so that the buffer of PAGE_SIZE can't hold them at all. One typical example is scsi-mq, the queue depth(.can_queue) of scsi_host and blk-mq is quite big but scsi_device's queue_depth is a bit small(.cmd_per_lun), then it is quite easy to have lots of pending requests in hw queue. This patch fixes the following warning and the related memory destruction.
