I have encountered a NULL pointer dereference in
throtl_schedule_pending_timer:
[ 413.735396] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000038
[ 413.735535] IP: [<ffffffff812ebbbf>] throtl_schedule_pending_timer+0x3f/0x210
[ 413.735643] PGD 22c8cf067 PUD 22cb34067 PMD 0
[ 413.735713] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
......
This is caused by the following case:
blk_throtl_bio
throtl_schedule_next_dispatch <= sq is top level one without parent
throtl_schedule_pending_timer
sq_to_tg(sq)->td->throtl_slice <= sq_to_tg(sq) returns NULL
Fix it by using sq_to_td instead of sq_to_tg(sq)->td, which will always
return a valid td.
Fixes: 297e3d8547 ("blk-throttle: make throtl_slice tunable")

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.
