Subject: [PATCH v9 2/8] blk-wbt: fix possible deadlock to nest pcpu_alloc_mutex under q_usage_counter
Date: Mon,  2 Feb 2026 16:05:17 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260202080523.3947504-3-yukuai@fnnas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260202080523.3947504-1-yukuai@fnnas.com>

If wbt is disabled by default and user configures wbt by sysfs, queue
will be frozen first and then pcpu_alloc_mutex will be held in
blk_stat_alloc_callback().

Fix this problem by allocating memory first before queue frozen.
