The rest of the patch does not change the order in which the sync worker is started and stopped - it just open codes it next to the xfs_syncd_start/stop calls. Essentially, all it does is obfuscate the real fix that is being made here and makes it harder to understand what the relationship between xfs_sync_worker() and xfs_syncd_start/stop is supposed to be. So a minimal patch, IMO, is just the above hunk....
