[ 214/221] ceph: Fix infinite loop in __wake_requests

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 15 2013 - 17:37:03 EST


3.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: "Yan, Zheng" <zheng.z.yan@xxxxxxxxx>

(cherry picked from commit ed75ec2cd19b47efcd292b6e23f58e56f4c5bc34)

__wake_requests() will enter infinite loop if we use it to wake
requests in the session->s_waiting list. __wake_requests() deletes
requests from the list and __do_request() adds requests back to
the list.
