A null pointer dereference can occur when blkcg is removed manually with writeback IOs inflight. This is caused by the following case: Writeback kworker submit the bio and set bio->bi_cg_private to tg in blk_throtl_assoc_bio. Then we remove the block cgroup manually, the blkg and tg would be freed if there is no request inflight. When the submitted bio come back, blk_throtl_bio_endio() fetch the tg which was already freed. Fix this by increasing the refcount of blkg in funcion blk_throtl_assoc_bio() so that the blkg will not be freed until the bio_endio called.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
