From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]> blkg_destroy_all() iterates q->blkg_list without holding blkcg_mutex, which can race with blkg_free_workfn() that removes blkgs from the list while holding blkcg_mutex. Add blkcg_mutex protection around the q->blkg_list iteration to prevent potential list corruption or use-after-free issues.
