From: Bart Van Assche bart.vanassche@wdc.com
commit 14e3062fb18532175af4d1c4073597999f7a2248 upstream.
Avoid that scsi_show_rq() triggers a NULL pointer dereference if called after sd_uninit_command(). Swap the NULL pointer assignment and the mempool_free() call in sd_uninit_command() to make it less likely that scsi_show_rq() triggers a use-after-free. Note: even with these changes scsi_show_rq() can trigger a use-after-free but that's a lesser evil than e.g. suppressing debug information for T10 PI Type 2 commands completely. This patch fixes the following oops:
