throttle_group_register_tgm() stores tgm->throttle_state before it takes
tg->lock, so the I/O path can see a member whose group still has NULL
tokens[] and an empty member list. A request in an iothread then reaches
throttle_group_co_io_limits_intercept(), wins tg->lock ahead of the
registering thread, and next_throttle_token() passes the NULL token to
throttle_group_next_tgm(), which dereferences it:

  throttle_group_next_tgm (tgm=0x0) at block/throttle-groups.c:185
  next_throttle_token (tgm=..., direction=THROTTLE_READ)
  throttle_group_co_io_limits_intercept (tgm=..., bytes=8192, ...)
  blk_co_do_preadv_part (blk=..., offset=..., bytes=8192, ...)
  blk_aio_read_entry (opaque=...)
  coroutine_trampoline (i0=..., i1=...)

blk_io_limits_enable() does not drain the BlockBackend, unlike its disable
counterpart, so nothing keeps requests away while the group is built. A
guest probing a disk that libvirt has just attached, at the moment the QoS
settings for it are applied, is enough to hit this.

Publish tgm->throttle_state with a release store once the member is
linked into the group and its timers exist, and read it with an acquire
load on the two unlocked I/O paths. A request that sees the new pointer
then also sees a fully built group.
