[PATCH 5.10 141/171] io_uring: fix race between timeout flush and removal

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Apr 12 2022 - 02:50:09 EST


From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>

commit e677edbcabee849bfdd43f1602bccbecf736a646 upstream.

io_flush_timeouts() assumes the timeout isn't in progress of triggering
or being removed/canceled, so it unconditionally removes it from the
timeout list and attempts to cancel it.

Leave it on the list and let the normal timeout cancelation take care
of it.
