+Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: Fix uninitialized kobject at CPU hotplugging
+
+When a CPU is hotplugged, the current blk-mq spews a warning like:
+
+  kobject '(null)' (ffffe8ffffc8b5d8): tried to add an uninitialized object, something is seriously wrong.
+  CPU: 1 PID: 1386 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 3.18.0-rc7-2.g088d59b-default #1
+  Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.7.5-20140531_171129-lamiak 04/01/2014

+
+This is indeed because of an uninitialized kobject for blk_mq_ctx.
+The blk_mq_ctx kobjects are initialized in blk_mq_sysfs_init(), but it
+goes loop over hctx_for_each_ctx(), i.e. it initializes only for
+online CPUs.  Thus, when a CPU is hotplugged, the ctx for the newly
+onlined CPU is registered without initialization.
+
+This patch fixes the issue by initializing the all ctx kobjects
+belonging to each queue.
