[ Upstream commit 884f0e84f1e3195b801319c8ec3d5774e9bf2710 ] The pending timer has been set up in blk_throtl_init(). However, the timer is not deleted in blk_throtl_exit(). This means that the timer handler may still be running after freeing the timer, which would result in a use-after-free. Fix by calling del_timer_sync() to delete the timer in blk_throtl_exit().

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.
