No need for the temporary variable; just return the function
call.

If something goes bad in the loop driver like that, is it
necessary to crash the whole kernel?

Is that supposed to be sched_setaffinity? It looks like
getaffinity does have a side-effect of updating the CPU mask
based on the current active cpus, but there won't be a CPU mask
to update unless setaffinity was called.

I've been told that linux kernel style is:
error = x();
if (error)

In patch 2/6 that function is called with:
if (orig_rq->q->mq_ops->prepare_flush_rq)
ret = orig_rq->q->mq_ops->prepare_flush_rq(
orig_rq->q->tag_set->driver_data,
orig_rq->q, flush_rq, orig_rq);


The src_rq argument is not used in this new function.
Do you anticipate it might be necessary in other drivers?

Is this new function allowed to modify *data, *flush_rq,
or *src_rq? If not, const might be good to add.

If orig_rq is always passed, then this function could
decode orig_rq->q and orig_rq->q->tag_set_>driver_data
on its own, eliminating the need for the first two arguments.

Similarly, in the unprepare_flush_rq function in patch 2,
which is not provided by the loop driver in this patch:

+ if (q->mq_ops->unprepare_flush_rq)
+ q->mq_ops->unprepare_flush_rq(
+ q->tag_set->driver_data,
+ q, q->flush_rq);
if q is always passed, then that function could calculate
q->tag_set_driver_data and q->flush_rq itself, eliminating
two arguments.

hctx->numa_node has been set before this; how about passing it
along to kmalloc_node in case it has a useful value?

blk_mq_init_hw_queues sets it before calling this function:
node = hctx->numa_node;
if (node == NUMA_NO_NODE)
node = hctx->numa_node = set->numa_node;
...
if (set->ops->init_hctx &&
set->ops->init_hctx(hctx, set->driver_data, i))
break;
loop_add (down lower) just sets set->numa_node to NUMA_NO_NODE
now, but it could hold a more interesting value in the future.

Setting hctx->driver_data to NULL after kfree would reduce the risk
of the stale pointer ever being used.

scsi-mq also uses NUMA_NO_NODE right now. Is there a better
choice?

scsi-mq includes BLK_MQ_F_SG_MERGE. Should this driver?

Use:
err = blk_mq_alloc_tag_set(&lo->tag_set);
if (err)
so the return value is propagated out of this function
(the function ends with "return err;")

That needs to be IS_ERR(lo->lo_queue) because blk_mq_init_queue
returns ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) on some errors. scsi_mq_alloc_queue
does that.

Although lo is freed a few lines below, setting lo->tag_set to
NULL would reduce the window in which a stale pointer could be used.
