This has triggered a new warning in randconfig builds for me, on 32-bit:

drivers/md/md.c: In function 'mddev_put':
drivers/md/md.c:564:1: error: the frame size of 1096 bytes is larger
than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

and on 64-bit:

drivers/md/md.c: In function 'mddev_put':
drivers/md/md.c:564:1: error: the frame size of 2112 bytes is larger
than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

The size of bio_set is a bit configuration dependent, but it looks like this is
a bit too big to put on the stack either way, epsecially when you traverse
a list and copy two of them with assignments for each loop in 'bs =
mddev->bio_set'.

A related problem is that calling bioset_exit on a copy of the bio_set
might not do the right thing. The function is defined as

void bioset_exit(struct bio_set *bs)
{
        if (bs->rescue_workqueue)
                destroy_workqueue(bs->rescue_workqueue);
        bs->rescue_workqueue = NULL;

        mempool_exit(&bs->bio_pool);
        mempool_exit(&bs->bvec_pool);

        bioset_integrity_free(bs);
        if (bs->bio_slab)
                bio_put_slab(bs);
        bs->bio_slab = NULL;
}

So it calls a couple of functions (detroy_workqueue, mempool_exit,
bioset_integrity_free, bio_put_slab), each of which might rely on
a the structure being the same one that was originally allocated.
If the structure contains any kind of linked list entry, passing a copy
into the list management functions would guarantee corruption.

I could not come up with an obvious fix, but maybe it's possible
to change mddev_put() to do call bioset_exit() before the
structure gets freed? Something like the (completely untested
and probably wrong somewhere) patch below
