A umount hang is possible when a race occurs between the umount
process and the xfsaild kthread. The following sequences outline
the race:
xfsaild: kthread_should_stop()
=> return false, so xfsaild continue
umount: set_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP, &kthread->flags)
=> by kthread_stop()
umount: wake_up_process()
=> because xfsaild is still running, so 0 is returned
xfsaild: __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)
xfsaild: schedule()
=> now, xfsaild will wait indefinitely
umount: wait_for_completion()
=> and umount will hang
To fix that, we need to check kthread_should_stop() after we set
the task state, so the xfsaild will either see the stop bit and
exit or the task state is reset to runnable by wake_up_process()
such that it isn't scheduled out indefinitely and detects the stop
bit at the next iteration.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
