commit c14a57264399efd39514a2329c591a4b954246d8 upstream. The scsi_end_request() function calls scsi_cmd_to_driver() indirectly and hence needs the disk->private_data pointer. Avoid that that pointer is cleared before all affected I/O requests have finished. This patch avoids that the following crash occurs: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 Call trace: scsi_mq_uninit_cmd+0x1c/0x30 scsi_end_request+0x7c/0x1b8 scsi_io_completion+0x464/0x668 scsi_finish_command+0xbc/0x160 scsi_eh_flush_done_q+0x10c/0x170 sas_scsi_recover_host+0x84c/0xa98 [libsas] scsi_error_handler+0x140/0x5b0 kthread+0x100/0x12c ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18 Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Cc: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Cc: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@suse.de> Cc: Jason Yan <yanaijie@huawei.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Reported-by: Jason Yan <yanaijie@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
