Subject: [PATCH block/for-linus] writeback: remove broken rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() usage in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2015 18:14:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151013221419.GC23106@mtj.duckdns.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1443997973-1700-1-git-send-email-dev@codyps.com>

a20135ffbc44 ("writeback: don't drain bdi_writeback_congested on bdi
destruction") added rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() which is
used to remove all entries; however, according to Cody, the iterator
isn't safe against operations which may rebalance the tree.  Fix it by
switching to repeatedly removing rb_first() until empty.
