We should not have any callers of this from non-task context, but Jakub
ran [1] into one from blk-iocost. Rather than risk running into others,
or future ones, just limit blk_time_get_ns() to when it is called from
a task. Any other usage is invalid.

Fixes: da4c8c3d09 ("block: cache current nsec time in struct blk_plug")

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.
