4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6bf6b0aa3da84a3d9126919a94c49c0fb7ee2fb3 ] If blk_mq_init_queue() returns an error, it gets assigned to vblk->disk->queue. Then, when we call put_disk(), we end up calling blk_put_queue() with the ERR_PTR, causing a bad dereference. Fix it by only assigning to vblk->disk->queue on success.
