I have encountered a NULL pointer dereference in
throtl_schedule_pending_timer:

This is caused by the following case:
blk_throtl_bio
throtl_schedule_next_dispatch <= sq is top level one without parent
throtl_schedule_pending_timer
sq_to_tg(sq)->td->throtl_slice <= sq_to_tg(sq) returns NULL
Fix it by using sq_to_td instead of sq_to_tg(sq)->td, which will always
return a valid td.
