4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
commit cd4a4ae4683dc2e09380118e205e057896dcda2b upstream.
If we end up splitting a bio and the queue goes away between the initial submission and the later split submission, then we can block forever in blk_queue_enter() waiting for the reference to drop to zero. This will never happen, since we already hold a reference.
Mark a split bio as already having entered the queue, so we can just use the live non-blocking queue enter variant.
Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for the analysis.
