f298e37655A netfs read request can run in one of two modes: for synchronous reads
writes, the app thread does the collection of results and for asynchronous
reads, this is offloaded to a worker thread. This is controlled by the
NETFS_RREQ_OFFLOAD_COLLECTION flag.
Now, if a subrequest incurs an error, the NETFS_RREQ_PAUSE flag is set to
stop the issuing loop temporarily from issuing more subrequests until a
retry is successful or the request is abandoned.
When the issuing loop sees NETFS_RREQ_PAUSE, it jumps to
netfs_wait_for_pause() which will wait for the PAUSE flag to be cleared -
and whilst it is waiting, it will call out to the collector as more results
acrue... But this is the wrong thing to do if OFFLOAD_COLLECTION is set as
we can then end up with both the app thread and the work item collecting
results simultaneously.
This manifests itself occasionally when running the generic/323 xfstest
against multichannel cifs as an oops that's a bit random but frequently
involving io_submit() (the test does lots of simultaneous async DIO reads).
Fix this by only doing the collection in netfs_wait_for_pause() if the
NETFS_RREQ_OFFLOAD_COLLECTION is not set.

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 reStructuredText 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.
