+Subject: blkcg: fix "scheduling while atomic" in blk_queue_bypass_start
+
+Since 749fefe677 in v3.7 ("block: lift the initial queue bypass mode
+on blk_register_queue() instead of blk_init_allocated_queue()"),
+the following warning appears when multipath is used with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.
+
+This patch moves blk_queue_bypass_start() before radix_tree_preload()
+to avoid the sleeping call while preemption is disabled.
+
+  BUG: scheduling while atomic: multipath/2460/0x00000002
