libata: fix NULL sdev dereference race in atapi_qc_complete()
commit 2a5f07b5ec098edc69e05fdd2f35d3fbb1235723 upstream. SCSI commands may be issued between __scsi_add_device() and dev->sdev assignment, so it's unsafe for ata_qc_complete() to dereference dev->sdev->locked without checking whether it's NULL or not. Fix it. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
