[ Upstream commit ec990306f77fd4c58c3b27cc3b3c53032d6e6670 ] The memory chunk io_req is released by mempool_free. Accessing io_req->start_time will result in a use after free bug. The variable start_time is a backup of the timestamp. So, use start_time here to avoid use after free.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
