Subject: [PATCH] KVM: fix OOPS on flush_work
Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:44:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1477482290-18464-1-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

The conversion done by commit 3706feacd007 ("KVM: Remove deprecated
create_singlethread_workqueue") is broken.  It flushes a single work
item &irqfd->shutdown instead of all of them, and even worse if there
is no irqfd on the list then you get a NULL pointer dereference.
Revert the virt/kvm/eventfd.c part of that patch; to avoid the
deprecated function, just allocate our own workqueue---it does
not even have to be unbound---with alloc_workqueue.

Fixes: 3706feacd007
