4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 1b856086813be9371929b6cc62045f9fd470f5a0 upstream. blk_set_queue_dying() can be called while another thread is submitting I/O or changing queue flags, e.g. through dm_stop_queue(). Hence protect the QUEUE_FLAG_DYING flag change with locking.
