3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit d0264c01e7587001a8c4608a5d1818dba9a4c11a upstream.
While converting ioctx index from a list to a table, db446a08c23d
("aio: convert the ioctx list to table lookup v3") missed tagging
kioctx_table->table[] as an array of RCU pointers and using the
appropriate RCU accessors. This introduces a small window in the
lookup path where init and access may race.
Mark kioctx_table->table[] with __rcu and use the approriate RCU
accessors when using the field.
