Haven't looked at the trace and description, but I do think there is a problem it solves.
1) io_wait_on_hash() -> __add_wait_queue(&hash->wait, &wqe->wait); 2) (note: wqe is a worker) wqe's workers exit dropping refs 3) refs are zero, free io-wq 4) @hash is shared, so other task/wq does wake_up(&wq->hash->wait); 5) it wakes freed wqe
step 4) is a bit more trickier than that, tl;dr; wq3:worker1 | locks bit1 wq1:worker2 | waits bit1 wq2:worker1 | waits bit1 wq1:worker3 | waits bit1
wq3:worker1 | drop bit1 wq1:worker2 | locks bit1 wq1:worker2 | completes all wq1 bit1 work items wq1:worker2 | drop bit1, exit and free io-wq
wq2:worker1 | locks bit1 wq1 | free complete wq2:worker1 | drops bit1 wq1:worker3 | waked up, even though freed
Can be simplified, don't want to waste time on that
