    blk-mq: fix null-ptr-deref in blk_mq_free_tags() from error path

    blk_mq_free_tags() can be called after blk_mq_init_tags(), while
    tags->page_list is still not initialized, causing null-ptr-deref.

    Fix this problem by initializing tags->page_list at blk_mq_init_tags(),
    meanwhile, also free tags directly from error path because there is no
    srcu barrier.

    Fixes: ad0d05d ("blk-mq: Defer freeing of tags page_list to SRCU callback")
