The lock around counting the channel queue length in the BIODASDINFO ioctl was incorrectly changed to the dasd_block->queue_lock with commit583d6535cb("dasd: remove dead code"). This can lead to endless list iterations and a subsequent crash. The queue_lock is supposed to be used only for queue lists belonging to dasd_block. For dasd_device related queue lists the ccwdev lock must be used. Fix the mentioned issues by correctly using the ccwdev lock instead of the queue lock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
