bcache_allocator() can call the following: bch_allocator_thread() -> bch_prio_write() -> bch_bucket_alloc() -> wait on &ca->set->bucket_wait But the wake up event on bucket_wait is supposed to come from bch_allocator_thread() itself => deadlock: [ 1158.490744] INFO: task bcache_allocato:15861 blocked for more than 10 seconds.

Moreover, make sure to wake up the garbage collector thread when bch_prio_write() is failing to allocate buckets.
