My initial problem was a crash in iov_iter_get_pages2() on process
kill. And when I tested your initial patch IO_URING_F_TASK_DEAD didn't
get set. Jens then asked to test with the version that I have in my
branch and that worked fine. Although in the mean time I wonder if
I made test mistake (like just fuse.ko reload instead of reboot with
new kernel). Just fixed a couple of issues in my branch (basically
ready for the next version send), will test the initial patch
again as first thing in the morning.

Does that mean that the test for PF_EXITING is racy and we cannot
entirely rely on it?


Thanks,
