cgroup: fix umount vs cgroup_cfts_commit() race
cgroup_cfts_commit() uses dget() to keep cgroup alive after cgroup_mutex is dropped, but dget() won't prevent cgroupfs from being umounted. When the race happens, vfs will see some dentries with non-zero refcnt while umount is in process. Keep running this: mount -t cgroup -o blkio xxx /cgroup umount /cgroup And this: modprobe cfq-iosched rmmod cfs-iosched After a while, the BUG() in shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree() may be triggered: BUG: Dentry xxx{i=0,n=blkio.yyy} still in use (1) [umount of cgroup cgroup] Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
