Linus Torvalds b75a2bf899 Merge branch 'for-4.6-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo:
 "So, it turns out we had a silly bug in the most fundamental part of
  workqueue for a very long time.  AFAICS, this dates back to pre-git
  era and has quite likely been there from the time workqueue was first
  introduced.

  A work item uses its PENDING bit to synchronize multiple queuers.
  Anyone who wins the PENDING bit owns the pending state of the work
  item.  Whether a queuer wins or loses the race, one thing should be
  guaranteed - there will soon be at least one execution of the work
  item - where "after" means that the execution instance would be able
  to see all the changes that the queuer has made prior to the queueing
  attempt.

  Unfortunately, we were missing a smp_mb() after clearing PENDING for
  execution, so nothing guaranteed visibility of the changes that a
  queueing loser has made, which manifested as a reproducible blk-mq
  stall.

  Lots of kudos to Roman for debugging the problem.  The patch for
  -stable is the minimal one.  For v3.7, Peter is working on a patch to
  make the code path slightly more efficient and less fragile"
