blkg->key = cfqd is an rcu protected pointer and hence we used to do call_rcu(cfqd->rcu_head) to free up cfqd after one rcu grace period. The problem here is that even though cfqd is around, there are no gurantees that associated request queue (td->queue) or q->queue_lock is still around. A driver might have called blk_cleanup_queue() and release the lock. It might happen that after freeing up the lock we call blkg->key->queue->queue_ock and crash. This is possible in following path. blkiocg_destroy() blkio_unlink_group_fn() cfq_unlink_blkio_group() Hence, wait for an rcu peirod if there are groups which have not been unlinked from blkcg->blkg_list. That way, if there are any groups which are taking cfq_unlink_blkio_group() path, can safely take queue lock. This is how we have taken care of race in throttling logic also.
