Since put_disk() triggers a disk_release() call and since that last function calls blk_put_queue() if disk->queue != NULL, clear the disk->queue pointer before calling put_disk(). This avoids that unloading the skd kernel module triggers the following use-after-free: WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 297 at lib/refcount.c:128 refcount_sub_and_test+0x70/0x80 refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
