The patch 0f20972f7bf6 moves a common cleanup code to a separate function. Unfortunatelly, the patch changes the order of cleanup, so that it destroys the srcu structure io_barrier before destroying the workqueue. The function that is executed on the workqueue (dm_wq_work) uses the srcu structure, thus it may use it after being freed. That results in a crash in the LVM test mirror-vgreduce-removemissing.sh.
