Rafael Mendonca aa0c680c3a block: Do not call blk_put_queue() if gendisk allocation fails
Commit 6f8191fdf4 ("block: simplify disk shutdown") removed the call
to blk_get_queue() during gendisk allocation but missed to remove the
corresponding cleanup code blk_put_queue() for it. Thus, if the gendisk
allocation fails, the request_queue refcount gets decremented and
reaches 0, causing blk_mq_release() to be called with a hctx still
alive. That triggers a WARNING report, as found by syzkaller:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
