A NULL pointer crash was reported for the case of having the BFQ IO scheduler attached to the underlying blk-mq paths of a DM multipath device. The crash occured in blk_mq_sched_insert_request()'s call to e->type->ops.mq.insert_requests(). Paolo Valente correctly summarized why the crash occured with: "the call chain (dm_mq_queue_rq -> map_request -> setup_clone -> blk_rq_prep_clone) creates a cloned request without invoking e->type->ops.mq.prepare_request for the target elevator e. The cloned request is therefore not initialized for the scheduler, but it is however inserted into the scheduler by blk_mq_sched_insert_request." All said, a request-based DM multipath device's IO scheduler should be the only one used -- when the original requests are issued to the underlying paths as cloned requests they are inserted directly in the underlying dispatch queue(s) rather than through an additional elevator.
