Subject: PROBLEM: null pointer dereference in cfq_dispatch_requests
	(2.6.21-rc2 and 2.6.20)

I can reliably reproduce a null pointer dereference on 2.6.20 and
2.6.21-rc2.  I will keep digging to find the kernel version where this
last worked, but wanted to see if there were any immediate experiments I
should try.

The failure is caused by running tiobench on a MD raid6 array with 6 out
of 8 disks available.  The commands I issued to reproduce this are:

	mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sd[bcdefg]
	mount /dev/md0 /mnt/raid
	tiobench --numruns 5 --size 2048 --dir /mnt/raid

The filesystem is ext3.  The controller is an LSI 1068.  Here are the
two BUG messages first 2.6.21-rc2 followed by 2.6.20.  I will reply to
this message with the config.
