X-Git-Tag: v4.14.41~47 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6b5a99167a79f9a24e96eb2b0342505826534007;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-exynos.git bdi: wake up concurrent wb_shutdown() callers. commit 8236b0ae31c837d2b3a2565c5f8d77f637e824cc upstream. syzbot is reporting hung tasks at wait_on_bit(WB_shutting_down) in wb_shutdown() [1]. This seems to be because commit 5318ce7d46866e1d ("bdi: Shutdown writeback on all cgwbs in cgwb_bdi_destroy()") forgot to call wake_up_bit(WB_shutting_down) after clear_bit(WB_shutting_down). Introduce a helper function clear_and_wake_up_bit() and use it, in order to avoid similar errors in future.
