Mikulas Patocka 0c8e9c2d66 dm zoned: fix invalid memory access
Commit 75d66ffb48 ("dm zoned: properly
handle backing device failure") triggers a coverity warning:

*** CID 1452808:  Memory - illegal accesses  (USE_AFTER_FREE)
/drivers/md/dm-zoned-target.c: 137 in dmz_submit_bio()
131             clone->bi_private = bioctx;
132
133             bio_advance(bio, clone->bi_iter.bi_size);
134
135             refcount_inc(&bioctx->ref);
136             generic_make_request(clone);
>>>     CID 1452808:  Memory - illegal accesses  (USE_AFTER_FREE)
>>>     Dereferencing freed pointer "clone".
137             if (clone->bi_status == BLK_STS_IOERR)
138                     return -EIO;
139
140             if (bio_op(bio) == REQ_OP_WRITE && dmz_is_seq(zone))
141                     zone->wp_block += nr_blocks;
142

The "clone" bio may be processed and freed before the check
"clone->bi_status == BLK_STS_IOERR" - so this check can access invalid
memory.

README

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.
