We have a race condition in below scenario, say have 3 continuous stripes, sh1,
sh2 and sh3, sh1 is the stripe_head of sh2 and sh3:
CPU1 CPU2 CPU3
handle_stripe(sh3)
stripe_add_to_batch_list(sh3)
-> lock(sh2, sh3)
-> lock batch_lock(sh1)
-> add sh3 to batch_list of sh1
-> unlock batch_lock(sh1)
clear_batch_ready(sh1)
-> lock(sh1) and batch_lock(sh1)
-> clear STRIPE_BATCH_READY for all stripes in batch_list
-> unlock(sh1) and batch_lock(sh1)
->clear_batch_ready(sh3)
-->test_and_clear_bit(STRIPE_BATCH_READY, sh3)
--->return 0 as sh->batch == NULL
-> sh3->batch_head = sh1
-> unlock (sh2, sh3)
In CPU1, handle_stripe will continue handle sh3 even it's in batch stripe list
of sh1. By moving sh3->batch_head assignment in to batch_lock, we make it
impossible to clear STRIPE_BATCH_READY before batch_head is set.
Thanks Stephane for helping debug this tricky issue.
