Zheng Qixing 331c2dd8ca dm: fix NULL pointer dereference in __dm_suspend() 
commit 8d33a030c5 upstream.

There is a race condition between dm device suspend and table load that
can lead to null pointer dereference. The issue occurs when suspend is
invoked before table load completes:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000054
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
CPU: 6 PID: 6798 Comm: dmsetup Not tainted 6.6.0-g7e52f5f0ca9b #62
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014
RIP: 0010:blk_mq_wait_quiesce_done+0x0/0x50
Call Trace:
  <TASK>

  x64_sys_call+0x2c4a/0x4620
  do_syscall_64+0x9e/0x1b0

The issue can be triggered as below:

T1 						T2
dm_suspend					table_load
__dm_suspend					dm_setup_md_queue
						dm_mq_init_request_queue
						blk_mq_init_allocated_queue
						=> q->mq_ops = set->ops; (1)
dm_stop_queue / dm_wait_for_completion
=> q->tag_set NULL pointer!	(2)
						=> q->tag_set = set; (3)

Fix this by checking if a valid table (map) exists before performing
request-based suspend and waiting for target I/O. When map is NULL,
skip these table-dependent suspend steps.

Even when map is NULL, no I/O can reach any target because there is
no table loaded; I/O submitted in this state will fail early in the
DM layer. Skipping the table-dependent suspend logic in this case
is safe and avoids NULL pointer dereferences.

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 reStructuredText 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.
