commit 7a0c5c5b834fb60764b494b0e39c239da3b0774b upstream.

Commit 4257e08 ("dm raid: support to change bitmap region size") introduced a bitmap resize call during preresume phase. User can create a DM device with "raid" target configured as raid1 with no metadata devices to hold superblock/bitmap info. It can be achieved using the following sequence:

  truncate -s 32M /dev/shm/raid-test
  LOOP=$(losetup --show -f /dev/shm/raid-test)
  dmsetup create raid-test-linear0 --table "0 1024 linear $LOOP 0"
  dmsetup create raid-test-linear1 --table "0 1024 linear $LOOP 1024"
  dmsetup create raid-test --table "0 1024 raid raid1 1 2048 2 - /dev/mapper/raid-test-linear0 - /dev/mapper/raid-test-linear1"

This results in the following crash:

The raid_preresume() function incorrectly assumes that the raid_set has a bitmap enabled if RT_FLAG_RS_BITMAP_LOADED is set. But RT_FLAG_RS_BITMAP_LOADED is getting set in __load_dirty_region_bitmap() even if there is no bitmap present (and bitmap_load() happily returns 0 even if a bitmap isn't present). So the only way forward in the near-term is to check if the bitmap is present by seeing if mddev->bitmap is not NULL after bitmap_load() has been called.

By doing so the above NULL pointer is avoided.
