[ Upstream commit 2645672ffe21f0a1c139bfbc05ad30fd4e4f2583 ]
If rq_qos_throttle() ends up blocking, then we will have invalidated and
flushed our current plug. Since blk_mq_get_cached_request() hasn't
popped the cached request off the plug list just yet, we end holding a
pointer to a request that is no longer valid. This insta-crashes with
rq->mq_hctx being NULL in the validity checks just after.
Pop the request off the cached list before doing rq_qos_throttle() to
avoid using a potentially stale request.
Fixes: 0a5aa8d161d1 ("block: fix blk_mq_attempt_bio_merge and rq_qos_throttle protection")
