Commit f7e3f85
block: fix memory leak in __blkdev_issue_zero_pages
Move the fatal signal check before bio_alloc() to prevent a memory
leak when BLKDEV_ZERO_KILLABLE is set and a fatal signal is pending.
Previously, the bio was allocated before checking for a fatal signal.
If a signal was pending, the code would break out of the loop without
freeing or chaining the just-allocated bio, causing a memory leak.
This matches the pattern already used in __blkdev_issue_write_zeroes()
where the signal check precedes the allocation.
Fixes: bf86bcd ("blk-lib: check for kill signal in ioctl BLKZEROOUT")
