block: fix an oops on BLKPREP_KILL
Doing a bit of torture testing, I ran across a BUG in the block subsystem (at blk-core.c:2048): the test for if the request is queued. It turns out the trigger was a BLKPREP_KILL coming out of the SCSI prep function. Currently for BLKPREP_KILL requests, we send them straight into __blk_end_request_all() with an error, but they've never been dequeued, so they trip the bug. Fix this by starting requests before killing them. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
