From: Jianchao Wang <jianchao.w.wang@xxxxxxxxxx> commit f5bbbbe4d63577026f908a809f22f5fd5a90ea1f upstream. For blk-mq, part_in_flight/rw will invoke blk_mq_in_flight/rw to account the inflight requests. It will access the queue_hw_ctx and nr_hw_queues w/o any protection. When updating nr_hw_queues and blk_mq_in_flight/rw occur concurrently, panic comes up. Before update nr_hw_queues, the q will be frozen. So we could use q_usage_counter to avoid the race. percpu_ref_is_zero is used here so that we will not miss any in-flight request. The access to nr_hw_queues and queue_hw_ctx in blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter are under rcu critical section, __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues could use synchronize_rcu to ensure the zeroed q_usage_counter to be globally visible. Backporting Notes This is a re-backport, landing synchronize_rcu in the right place.
