commit c14a57264399efd39514a2329c591a4b954246d8 upstream.
The scsi_end_request() function calls scsi_cmd_to_driver() indirectly and hence needs the disk->private_data pointer. Avoid that that pointer is cleared before all affected I/O requests have finished. This patch avoids that the following crash occurs:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 Call trace: scsi_mq_uninit_cmd+0x1c/0x30 scsi_end_request+0x7c/0x1b8 scsi_io_completion+0x464/0x668 scsi_finish_command+0xbc/0x160 scsi_eh_flush_done_q+0x10c/0x170 sas_scsi_recover_host+0x84c/0xa98 [libsas] scsi_error_handler+0x140/0x5b0 kthread+0x100/0x12c ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18
