Try this:
diff --git a/kernel/rcu/srcu.c b/kernel/rcu/srcu.c
index 9b9cdd549caa..ef5599c65299 100644
--- a/kernel/rcu/srcu.c
+++ b/kernel/rcu/srcu.c
@@ -283,6 +283,7 @@ void cleanup_srcu_struct(struct srcu_struct *sp)
{
if (WARN_ON(srcu_readers_active(sp)))
return; /* Leakage unless caller handles error. */
+ flush_delayed_work(&sp->work);
free_percpu(sp->per_cpu_ref);
sp->per_cpu_ref = NULL;
}
I think it should subsume Steve's patch, but I'm not 101% sure. We
will have to run this through Paul.
