We have to initialize at least the atomic_flags and the cmd_flags when allocating storage for the requests. Otherwise blk_mq_timeout_check() might dereference uninitialized pointers when racing with the creation of a request. Also move the reset of cmd_flags for the initializing code to the point where a request is freed. So we will never end up with pending flush request indicators that might trigger dereferences of invalid pointers in blk_mq_timeout_check().
