Subject: [PATCH] block: fix use-after-free of q->q_usage_counter

From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@...hat.com>

commit d36a9ea5e7766961e753ee38d4c331bbe6ef659b upstream.

For blk-mq, queue release handler is usually called after
blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait() returns. However, the
q_usage_counter->release() handler may not be run yet at that time, so
this can cause a use-after-free.

Fix the issue by moving percpu_ref_exit() into blk_free_queue_rcu().
Since ->release() is called with rcu read lock held, it is agreed that
the race should be covered in caller per discussion from the two links.

Backport-notes: Not a clean cherry-pick since a lot has changed,
however essentially the same fix.
