Subject: [stable-4.19 2/8] block: don't hold q->sysfs_lock in elevator_init_mq
Date: Wed,  3 Feb 2021 14:20:16 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210203132022.92406-3-jinpu.wang@cloud.ionos.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210203132022.92406-1-jinpu.wang@cloud.ionos.com>

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

The original comment says:

	q->sysfs_lock must be held to provide mutual exclusion between
	elevator_switch() and here.

Which is simply wrong. elevator_init_mq() is only called from
blk_mq_init_allocated_queue, which is always called before the request
queue is registered via blk_register_queue(), for dm-rq or normal rq
based driver. However, queue's kobject is only exposed and added to sysfs
in blk_register_queue(). So there isn't such race between elevator_switch()
and elevator_init_mq().

So avoid to hold q->sysfs_lock in elevator_init_mq().
