Subject[PATCH 3.12 154/170] dm io: fix a race condition in the wake up code for sync_io
Date
From: Joe Thornber <thornber@redhat.com>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 10f1d5d111e8aed46a0f1179faf9a3cf422f689e upstream.

There's a race condition between the atomic_dec_and_test(&io->count)
in dec_count() and the waking of the sync_io() thread. If the thread
is spuriously woken immediately after the decrement it may exit,
making the on stack io struct invalid, yet the dec_count could still
be using it.

Fix this race by using a completion in sync_io() and dec_count().
