[PATCH] dm: fix rh_dec()/rh_inc() race in dm-raid1.c
Fix another bug in dm-raid1.c that the dirty region may stay in or be moved to clean list and freed while in use. It happens as follows: CPU0 CPU1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ rh_dec() if (atomic_dec_and_test(pending)) <the region is still marked dirty> rh_inc() if the region is clean mark the region dirty and remove from clean list mark the region clean and move to clean list atomic_inc(pending) At this stage, the region is in clean list and will be mistakenly reclaimed by rh_update_states() later.
