v3 cover blk_cleanup_queue() versus request_fn order fix

At device removal time request processing functions like scsi_request_fn() that unlock the queue lock internally may cause blk_cleanup_queue() to finish while request_fn is in progress. This three-patch series makes sure that blk_cleanup_queue() can't finish before all active request_fn calls have finished and also that request_fn isn't invoked anymore after queue draining finished.

Changes compared to v2:
- Split second patch into two patches.
- Refined patch descriptions.

Changes compared to v1:
- Included a patch to rename QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD.
- Refined the descriptions of the __blk_run_queue_uncond() and blk_cleanup_queue() functions.

PATCH v3 1/3 block: Rename queue dead flag

This flag is used to indicate that queuing new requests must stop. After this flag has been set queue draining starts. However, during the queue draining phase it is still safe to invoke the queue's request_fn, so "dying" is a better name than "dead".

This patch is the result of running the command below and manually fixing up indentation:

git grep -lE 'blk_queue_dead|QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD' |
xargs sed -i .tmp -e 's/blk_queue_dead/blk_queue_dying/g' \
-e 's/QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD/QUEUE_FLAG_DYING/g'

PATCH v3 2/3 block: Avoid that request_fn is invoked on a dead queue

In reply to Bart Van Assche

Avoid that request_fn gets invoked after queue draining finished. blk_cleanup_queue() callers expect that request handling has finished once this function has returned so request_fn must not get invoked after blk_cleanup_queue() finished.

PATCH v3 3/3 Make blk_cleanup_queue() wait until request_fn finished

In reply to Bart Van Assche

Some request_fn implementations, e.g. scsi_request_fn(), unlock the queue lock. Make sure that blk_cleanup_queue() waits until all active request_fn invocations have finished. This fixes a potential use-after-free at the end of scsi_request_fn().

Any reason to keep this "out:" label now that it has no effect?

Some people prefer a single-exit style for kernel code since that style makes it easy to add cleanup code for resources allocated inside the function itself. I don't have a strong opinion about this though.

Note: after I posted this patch series I noticed that patch 2/3 leaves a (small) race window. I'm currently testing this follow-up patch:
