refcount_inc_not_zero() in bt_tags_iter() still may read one freed request. Fix the issue by the following approach: 1) hold a per-tags spinlock when reading ->rqs[tag] and calling refcount_inc_not_zero in bt_tags_iter() 2) clearing stale request referred via ->rqs[tag] before freeing request pool, the per-tags spinlock is held for clearing stale ->rq[tag] So after we cleared stale requests, bt_tags_iter() won't observe freed request any more, also the clearing will wait for pending request reference. The idea of clearing ->rqs[] is borrowed from John Garry's previous patch and one recent David's patch.

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.
