commit 2820e5d082 upstream.
dd_finish_request() tests if the per prio fifo_list is not empty to
determine if request dispatching must be restarted for handling blocked
write requests to zoned devices with a call to
blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_hctx(). While simple, this implementation has
2 problems:
1) Only the priority level of the completed request is considered.
However, writes to a zone may be blocked due to other writes to the
same zone using a different priority level. While this is unlikely to
happen in practice, as writing a zone with different IO priorirites
does not make sense, nothing in the code prevents this from
happening.
2) The use of list_empty() is dangerous as dd_finish_request() does not
take dd->lock and may run concurrently with the insert and dispatch
code.
Fix these 2 problems by testing the write fifo list of all priority
levels using the new helper dd_has_write_work(), and by testing each
fifo list using list_empty_careful().
