4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Josef Bacik <josef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 545e3366db823dc3342ca9d7fea803f829c9062f upstream. Allocating new chunks modifies both the extent and chunk tree, which can trigger new chunk allocations. So instead of doing list_for_each_safe, just do while (!list_empty()) so we make sure we don't exit with other pending bg's still on our list.
