[PATCH V3 7/7] ublk_drv: do not run monitor_work while ub's state is QUIESCED

From: ZiyangZhang
Date: Tue Sep 13 2022 - 00:19:49 EST


START_USER_RECOVERY release task_struct of ubq_daemon and resets
->ubq_daemon to NULL. So in monitor_work, check on ubq_daemon causes UAF.
Besides, monitor_work is not necessary in QUIESCED state since we have
already scheduled quiesce_work and quiesce all ubqs.

Do not let monitor_work schedule itself if state it QUIESCED. And we cancel
it in START_USER_RECOVERY and re-schedule it in END_USER_RECOVERY to avoid
UAF.
