BFQ is already doing a similar thing in its .pd_offline_fn() method
implementation.
While it seems that after commit 4c6994806f
("blk-throttle: fix race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir()")
was reverted leaving these pointers intact no longer causes crashes
clearing them is still a sensible thing to do to make the code more robust.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
