The alloc/free info refers to a data structure owned by the pipe
implementation. The use-after-free report refers to a data structure
owned by the block layer. How can that report make sense?

Can the above change trigger the following assignment?

hctx->tags->rqs[-1] = NULL?

>From include/linux/slab.h:

static inline void *kcalloc_node(size_t n, size_t size, gfp_t flags,
                                 int node)
{
	return kmalloc_array_node(n, size, flags | __GFP_ZERO, node);
}

I think this means that kcalloc_node() already zeroes the allocated
memory and hence that changing kcalloc() into kzalloc() is not necessary.

I don't think the above changes are sufficient to fix the
use-after-free. Has it been considered to free the memory that backs
tags->bitmap_tags only after an RCU grace period has expired? See also
blk_mq_free_tags().

Thanks,

Bart.
