Commit 67807fb
block: fix bio_alloc_bioset slowpath GFP handling
bio_alloc_bioset() first strips __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM from the optimistic
fast allocation attempt with try_alloc_gfp(). If that fast path fails,
the slowpath checks saved_gfp to decide whether blocking allocation is
allowed, but then still calls mempool_alloc() with the stripped gfp mask.
That can lead to a NULL bio pointer being passed into bio_init().
Fix the slowpath by using saved_gfp for the bio and bvec mempool
allocations.
Fixes: b520c4e ("block: split bio_alloc_bioset more clearly into a fast and slowpath")
