The function bfq_setup_merge prepares the merging between two bfq_queues, say bfqq and new_bfqq. To this goal, it assigns bfqq->new_bfqq = new_bfqq. Then, each time some I/O for bfqq arrives, the process that generated that I/O is disassociated from bfqq and associated with new_bfqq (merging is actually a redirection). In this respect, bfq_setup_merge increases new_bfqq->ref in advance, adding the number of processes that are expected to be associated with new_bfqq. Unfortunately, the stable-merging mechanism interferes with this setup. After bfqq->new_bfqq has been set by bfq_setup_merge, and before all the expected processes have been associated with bfqq->new_bfqq, bfqq may happen to be stably merged with a different queue than the current bfqq->new_bfqq. In this case, bfqq->new_bfqq gets changed. So, some of the processes that have been already accounted for in the ref counter of the previous new_bfqq will not be associated with that queue. This creates an unbalance, because those references will never be decremented. This commit fixes this issue by reestablishing the previous, natural behaviour: once bfqq->new_bfqq has been set, it will not be changed until all expected redirections have occurred.

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 Restructured Text 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.
