Changwei Ge 6fd469d06e ocfs2: don't use iocb when EIOCBQUEUED returns
[ Upstream commit 9e98578775 ]

When -EIOCBQUEUED returns, it means that aio_complete() will be called
from dio_complete(), which is an asynchronous progress against
write_iter.  Generally, IO is a very slow progress than executing
instruction, but we still can't take the risk to access a freed iocb.

And we do face a BUG crash issue.  Using the crash tool, iocb is
obviously freed already.

  crash> struct -x kiocb ffff881a350f5900
  struct kiocb {
    ki_filp = 0xffff881a350f5a80,
    ki_pos = 0x0,
    ki_complete = 0x0,
    private = 0x0,
    ki_flags = 0x0
  }

And the backtrace shows:
  ocfs2_file_write_iter+0xcaa/0xd00 [ocfs2]
  aio_run_iocb+0x229/0x2f0
  do_io_submit+0x291/0x540
  SyS_io_submit+0x10/0x20
  system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x75

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
