If the b_iodone handler is run in calling context in xfs_buf_iorequest we can run into a recursion where xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest because an I/O error happened, which keeps calling back into xfs_buf_iorequest. This chain will usually not take long because the filesystem gets shut down because of log I/O errors, but even over a short time it can cause stack overflows if run on the same context. As a short term workaround make sure we always call the iodone handler in workqueue context. Signed-off-by:Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by:
