commit1c05839aa9upstream. This fixes a regression added with: commite9e006f5fcAuthor: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Date: Sun Aug 4 14:10:06 2019 -0500 nbd: fix max number of supported devs where we can deadlock during device shutdown. The problem occurs if the recv_work's nbd_config_put occurs after nbd_start_device_ioctl has returned and the userspace app has droppped its reference via closing the device and running nbd_release. The recv_work nbd_config_put call would then drop the refcount to zero and try to destroy the config which would try to do destroy_workqueue from the recv work. This patch just has nbd_start_device_ioctl do a flush_workqueue when it wakes so we know after the ioctl returns running works have exited. This also fixes a possible race where we could try to reuse the device while old recv_works are still running.

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.
