Lihong Kou 1ef68b84bc block: flush the integrity workqueue in blk_integrity_unregister
[ Upstream commit 3df49967f6 ]

When the integrity profile is unregistered there can still be integrity
reads queued up which could see a NULL verify_fn as shown by the race
window below:

CPU0                                    CPU1
  process_one_work                      nvme_validate_ns
    bio_integrity_verify_fn                nvme_update_ns_info
	                                     nvme_update_disk_info
	                                       blk_integrity_unregister
                                               ---set queue->integrity as 0
	bio_integrity_process
	--access bi->profile->verify_fn(bi is a pointer of queue->integity)

Before calling blk_integrity_unregister in nvme_update_disk_info, we must
make sure that there is no work item in the kintegrityd_wq. Just call
blk_flush_integrity to flush the work queue so the bug can be resolved.

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.
