[GIT PULL] fscache: Fix incorrect mixing of wake/wait and missing barriers

[GIT PULL] fscache: Fix incorrect mixing of wake/wait and missing barriers

[David Howells]

Hi Linus,

Could you pull these fixes from Hou Tao please?  There are two problems
fixed in fscache volume handling:

 (1) wake_up_bit() is incorrectly paired with wait_var_event().  The latter
     selects the waitqueue to use differently.

 (2) Missing barriers ordering between state bit and task state.

Thanks,
David

To quote Hou Tao:

    The patchset includes two fixes for fscache volume operations: patch 1
    fixes the hang problem during volume acquisition when the volume
    acquisition process waits for the freeing of relinquished volume, patch
    2 adds the missing memory barrier in fscache_create_volume_work() and it
    is spotted through code review when checking whether or not these is
    missing smp_mb() before invoking wake_up_bit().

    Change Log:
    v3:
     * Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() helper (Suggested by Jingbo Xu)
     * Tidy up commit message and add Reviewed-by tag

    v2: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2022-December/007402.html
     * rebased on v6.1-rc1
     * Patch 1: use wait_on_bit() instead (Suggested by David)
     * Patch 2: add the missing smp_mb() in fscache_create_volume_work()

    v1: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2022-December/007384.html
