Subject: Re: Regression v6.11 booting cannot mount harddisks (xfs)
Hi Hellwig,
I bisected my boot problem down to this commit:
$ git bisect good
af2814149883e2c1851866ea2afcd8eadc040f79 is the first bad commit
commit af2814149883e2c1851866ea2afcd8eadc040f79

block: freeze the queue in queue_attr_store
queue_attr_store updates attributes used to control generating I/O, and
can cause malformed bios if changed with I/O in flight. Freeze the
queue
in common code instead of adding it to almost every attribute.
