vfs: call rcu_barrier after ->kill_sb()
In commit fa0d7e3de6d6 ("fs: icache RCU free inodes"), we use rcu free inode instead of freeing the inode directly. It causes a crash when we rmmod immediately after we umount the volume[1]. So we need to call rcu_barrier after we kill_sb so that the inode is freed before we do rmmod. The idea is inspired by Aneesh Kumar. rcu_barrier will wait for all callbacks to end before preceding. The original patch was done by Tao Ma, but synchronize_rcu() is not enough here. 1. http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=129680863330185&w=2 Tested-by: Tao Ma <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <[email protected]> Cc: Nick Piggin <[email protected]> Cc: Al Viro <[email protected]> Cc: Chris Mason <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
