Actually when bdev is opened, one extra refcount is held on gendisk, so
gendisk won't go away. And __device_add_disk() does grab one extra
refcount on request queue, so request queue shouldn't go away when ioctl
is running.
Can you describe a bit more what the issue is to be addressed by this
patch?
Thanks,
Ming
