4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jiang Biao <jiang.biao2@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 901932a3f9b2b80352896be946c6d577c0a9652c ]
The initializing of q->root_blkg is currently outside of queue lock
and rcu, so the blkg may be destroied before the initializing, which
may cause dangling/null references. On the other side, the destroys
of blkg are protected by queue lock or rcu. Put the initializing
inside the queue lock and rcu to make it safer.
