Sorry, I'm using gmail, but I'll switch to attaching the logs.
So with help from Xiaolong I was able to reproduce this, and it does
not appear to be a regression. We simply change the failure output of
an existing bug. Attached is a log of the same test on v4.10-rc7 (i.e.
without the recent block/scsi fixes), and it shows sda being
registered twice.
"[ 6.647077] kobject (d5078ca4): tried to init an initialized
object, something is seriously wrong."
The change that "scsi, block: fix duplicate bdi name registration
crashes" makes is to properly try to register sdb since the sda devt
is still alive. However that's not a fix because we've managed to call
blk_register_queue() twice on the same queue.
