Revision 10f1d5d111e8aed46a0f1179faf9a3cf422f689e authored by Joe Thornber on 27 June 2014, 19:29:04 UTC, committed by Mike Snitzer on 10 July 2014, 20:44:14 UTC
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().
