Plug merge calls two elevator callbacks outside queue lock - elevator_allow_merge_fn() and elevator_bio_merged_fn(). Although attempt_plug_merge() suggests that elevator is guaranteed to be there through the existing request on the plug list, nothing prevents plug merge from calling into dying or initializing elevator. For regular merges, bypass ensures elvpriv count to reach zero, which in turn prevents merges as all !ELVPRIV requests get REQ_SOFTBARRIER from forced back insertion. Plug merge doesn't check ELVPRIV, and, as the requests haven't gone through elevator insertion yet, it doesn't have SOFTBARRIER set allowing merges on a bypassed queue. This, for example, leads to the following crash during elevator switch.

They aren't on the elevator yet, so there's no elevator specific state to update. * Given the nature of plug merges - collecting bio's for the same purpose from the same issuer - elevator specific restrictions aren't applicable. So, simply don't call into elevator methods from plug merge by moving elv_bio_merged() from bio_attempt_*_merge() to blk_queue_bio(), and using blk_try_merge() in attempt_plug_merge(). This is based on Jens' patch to skip elevator_allow_merge_fn() from plug merge. Note that this makes per-cgroup merged stats skip plug merging.
