Hennes reported the following kernel oops:There is a race condition between namespace rescanning and controller reset; during controller reset all namespaces are quiesed vie nams_stop_ctrl(), and after reset all namespaces are unquiesced again. When namespace scanning was active by the time controller reset was triggered the rescan code will call nvme_ns_remove(), which then will cause a kernel crash in nvme_start_ctrl() as it'll trip over uninitialized namespaces. Patch "blk-mq: free hw queue's resource in hctx's release handler" should make this issue quite difficult to trigger. However it can't kill the issue completely becasue pre-condition of that patch is to hold request queue's refcount before calling block layer API, and there is still a small window between blk_cleanup_queue() and removing the ns from the controller namspace list in nvme_ns_remove(). Hold request queue's refcount until the ns is freed, then the above race can be avoided completely. Given the 'namespaces_rwsem' is always held to retrieve ns for starting/stopping request queue, this lock can prevent namespaces from being freed.
