Ming Lei 7bed45954b blk-mq: make sure hctx->next_cpu is set correctly
When hctx->next_cpu is set from possible online CPUs, there is one
race in which hctx->next_cpu may be set as >= nr_cpu_ids, and finally
break workqueue.

The race can be triggered in the following two sitations:

1) when one CPU is becoming DEAD, blk_mq_hctx_notify_dead() is called
to dispatch requests from the DEAD cpu context, but at that
time, this DEAD CPU has been cleared from 'cpu_online_mask', so all
CPUs in hctx->cpumask may become offline, and cause hctx->next_cpu set
a bad value.

2) blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() is called from CPU B, and found the queue
should be run on the other CPU A, then CPU A may become offline at the
same time and all CPUs in hctx->cpumask become offline.

This patch deals with this issue by re-selecting next CPU, and making
sure it is set correctly.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
