    The %rbx == NULL is only a symptom of the cgroup mishandling, perhaps we could
    improve error handling in the NVMe driver, but I can say that about a lot of block
    drivers actually, perhaps I will write some patches in the future to improve the
    error handling.

    But the root cause of it is in blkcg_init_queue() when blkg_create() returns
    an ERR ptr, because it tries to insert into a populated index into blkcg->blkg_tree,
    the entry that we fail to remove at __blk_release_queue().

    Thanks,
