[PATCH] nvme: fix (S)RCU protection of nvme_ns_head list (alternate)

Wed Nov 23 16:24:32 PST 2022


This is an alternate fix, protecting the nvme_ns_head siblings list
with both RCU and SRCU.
Use RCU in nvme_mpath_revalidate_paths(), which doesn't sleep.
And add synchronize_srcu() in nvme_ns_remove(),
since nvme_ns_head_submit_bio() protects the list with SRCU.
