+Subject: block: blk_init_allocated_queue() set q->fq as NULL in the fail case
+
+From: xiao jin <jin.xiao@intel.com>
+
+commit 54648cf1ec2d7f4b6a71767799c45676a138ca24 upstream.
+
+We find the memory use-after-free issue in __blk_drain_queue()
+on the kernel 4.14. After read the latest kernel 4.18-rc6 we
+think it has the same problem.
+
+Memory is allocated for q->fq in the blk_init_allocated_queue().
+If the elevator init function called with error return, it will
+run into the fail case to free the q->fq.
+
+Then the __blk_drain_queue() uses the same memory after the free
+of the q->fq, it will lead to the unpredictable event.
+
+The patch is to set q->fq as NULL in the fail case of
+blk_init_allocated_queue().
+
+Fixes: commit 7c94e1c157a2 ("block: introduce blk_flush_queue to drive flush machinery")
