From 690e5325b8c7d5db05fc569c0f7b888bb4248272 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 14:50:19 +0100 Subject: block: fix use after free in __blkdev_direct_IO MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit We can't dereference the dio structure after submitting the last bio for this request, as I/O completion might have happened before the code is run. Introduce a local is_sync variable instead.
