Coly Li c17480cb33 bcache: fix static checker warning in bcache_device_free()
[ Upstream commit 2d8869518a525c9bce5f5268419df9dfbe3dfdeb ]

Commit cafe563591 ("bcache: A block layer cache") leads to the
following static checker warning:

    ./drivers/md/bcache/super.c:770 bcache_device_free()
    warn: variable dereferenced before check 'd->disk' (see line 766)

drivers/md/bcache/super.c
   762  static void bcache_device_free(struct bcache_device *d)
   763  {
   764          lockdep_assert_held(&bch_register_lock);
   765
   766          pr_info("%s stopped", d->disk->disk_name);
                                      ^^^^^^^^^
Unchecked dereference.

   767
   768          if (d->c)
   769                  bcache_device_detach(d);
   770          if (d->disk && d->disk->flags & GENHD_FL_UP)
                    ^^^^^^^
Check too late.

   771                  del_gendisk(d->disk);
   772          if (d->disk && d->disk->queue)
   773                  blk_cleanup_queue(d->disk->queue);
   774          if (d->disk) {
   775                  ida_simple_remove(&bcache_device_idx,
   776                                    first_minor_to_idx(d->disk->first_minor));
   777                  put_disk(d->disk);
   778          }
   779

It is not 100% sure that the gendisk struct of bcache device will always
be there, the warning makes sense when there is problem in block core.

This patch tries to remove the static checking warning by checking
d->disk to avoid NULL pointer deferences.

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.
