From bf4e6b4e757488dee1b6a581f49c7ac34cd217f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Reinecke Date: Thu, 26 Nov 2015 08:46:57 +0100 Subject: block: Always check queue limits for cloned requests When a cloned request is retried on other queues it always needs to be checked against the queue limits of that queue. Otherwise the calculations for nr_phys_segments might be wrong, leading to a crash in scsi_init_sgtable(). To clarify this the patch renames blk_rq_check_limits() to blk_cloned_rq_check_limits() and removes the symbol export, as the new function should only be used for cloned requests and never exported.
