In throtl_pending_timer_fn(), request queue is retrieved from throttle data. And tg's pending timer is deleted synchronously when releasing the associated blkg, at that time, throttle data may have been freed since commit 1059699f87eb ("block: move blkcg initialization/destroy into disk allocation/release handler") moves freeing q->td to disk_release() from blk_release_queue(). So use-after-free on q->td in throtl_pending_timer_fn can be triggered. Fixes the issue by: - do nothing in case that disk is released, when there isn't any bio to dispatch - retrieve request queue from blkg instead of throttle data for non top-level pending timer.

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.
