Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: fix out-of-order execution in f2fs_issue_flush
Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2017 22:53:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170821145345.3828-1-chao@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Chao Yu <yuchao0@huawei.com>

In f2fs_issue_flush, due to out-of-order execution of CPU, wake_up can
be called before we insert issue_list, result in long latency of
wait_for_completion. Fix this by adding smp_mb() to force the order of
related codes.
