Tong Zhang a7e8de822e dax: make sure inodes are flushed before destroy cache 
A bug can be triggered by following command

$ modprobe nd_pmem && modprobe -r nd_pmem

[   10.060014] BUG dax_cache (Not tainted): Objects remaining in dax_cache on __kmem_cache_shutdown()
[   10.060938] Slab 0x0000000085b729ac objects=9 used=1 fp=0x000000004f5ae469 flags=0x200000000010200(slab|head|node)
[   10.062433] Call Trace:
[   10.062673]  dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44
[   10.062865]  slab_err+0x90/0xd0
[   10.063619]  __kmem_cache_shutdown+0x13b/0x2f0
[   10.063848]  kmem_cache_destroy+0x4a/0x110
[   10.064058]  __x64_sys_delete_module+0x265/0x300

This is caused by dax_fs_exit() not flushing inodes before destroy cache.
To fix this issue, call rcu_barrier() before destroy cache.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
