In blk_mq_alloc_tag_set(), if blk_mq_alloc_set_map_and_rqs() fails
after some hardware queues have already been allocated, its unwind
path frees the partially allocated maps and tags through invoke the
blk_mq_free_map_and_rqs()->blk_mq_free_tags(), which issues call_srcu()
against set->tags_srcu. control then returns to blk_mq_alloc_tag_set()
and falls through to the out_cleanup_tags_srcu label, which calls
cleanup_srcu_struct() directly.
Calling cleanup_srcu_struct() while call_srcu() callbacks are still
outstanding is illegal, it triggers a WARN and tears down the
srcu_struct while the pending blk_mq_free_tags_callback() still
references it, leading to a use-after-free.
The normal teardown path in blk_mq_free_tag_set() already guards
against this by calling srcu_barrier() before cleanup_srcu_struct(),
but the error path in blk_mq_alloc_tag_set() was missing the same
barrier. this commit therefore also add srcu_barrier(&set->tags_srcu)
call so that all outstanding SRCU callbacks complete before the
srcu_struct is destroyed.
Fixes: ad0d05dbddc1 ("blk-mq: Defer freeing of tags page_list to SRCU callback")
