Hi Jens,
I forgot to mention that dead lock is quite well reproduced
if app is killed, when no IO is performed (i.e. polling thread
is scheduled out).

o kthread_park() waits for park completion, so io_sq_thread() loop
should check kthread_should_park() along with khread_should_stop(),
otherwise if kthread_park() is called before prepare_to_wait()
the following schedule() never returns.
o if the flag ctx->sqo_stop is observed by the io_sq_thread() loop
it is quite possible, that kthread_should_park() check and the
following kthread_parkme() is never called, because kthread_park()
has not been yet called, but few moments later is is called and
waits there for park completion, which never happens, because
kthread has already exited.
It seems that parking here is not needed at all (thread is parked and
then stopped and never unparked), so here in this patch I simply rely
on kthread_should_stop() check and then exit the thread.
