FWIW, the stacktrace here (removing the ? lines) is:

[   34.311980] RIP: 0010:bfq_dispatch_request+0x2be/0x1610
[   34.452491]  blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched+0x1d9/0x260

[   34.460823]  blk_mq_run_hw_queue+0x10b/0x1b0

[   34.467342]  blk_execute_rq+0xcf/0x140
[   34.468483]  sg_io+0x2f7/0x730

Can anyone tell me more about the memory allocation layout of the
various variables here? It looks like struct request is a header in
front of struct scsi_request? How do struct elevator_queue, struct
blk_mq_ctx, and struct blk_mq_hw_ctx overlap these?

Regardless, I'll check for elevator data changing too...
