The patch 2984c868: "nullb: factor disk parameters" from Aug 14,
2017, leads to the following Smatch complaint:

drivers/block/null_blk.c:1759 null_init_tag_set()
	 error: we previously assumed 'nullb' could be null (see line
1750)

  1755		set->cmd_size	= sizeof(struct nullb_cmd);
  1756		set->flags = BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_MERGE;
  1757		set->driver_data = NULL;
  1758
  1759		if (nullb->dev->blocking)
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
And an unchecked dereference.

nullb could be NULL here.
