Bsg holding a reference to the parent device may result in a crash if a bsg file handle is closed after the parent device driver has unloaded. Holding a reference is not really needed: the parent device must exist between bsg_register_queue and bsg_unregister_queue. Before the device goes away the caller does blk_cleanup_queue so that all in-flight requests to the device are gone and all new requests cannot pass beyond the queue. The queue itself is a refcounted object and it will stay alive with a bsg file. Based on analysis, previous patch and changelog from Anatoliy Glagolev.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
