To expand on this we have say 2 outstanding pnfs write IO that get ESTALE which causes both to call pnfs_destroy_layout() and set the NFS_LAYOUT_DRAIN bit but the 1st one doesn't call the pnfs_put_layout_hdr() yet (as that would prevent the 2nd ESTALE write from trying to call pnfs_destroy_layout()). If the 1st ESTALE write is the one that initially sets the NFS_LAYOUT_DRAIN so that new IO on this file initiates new LAYOUTGET. Another new write would find NFS_LAYOUT_DRAIN set and phl_outstanding>0 (step 1) and would wait_on_bit(). LAYOUTGET completes doing step 2. Now, the 2nd of ESTALE writes is calling pnfs_destory_layout() and set the NFS_LAYOUT_DRAIN bit (step 3). Finally, the waiting write wakes up to check the bit and goes back to sleep. The problem revolves around the fact that if NFS_LAYOUT_INVALID_STID was already set, it should not do the work of pnfs_mark_layout_stateid_invalid(), thus NFS_LAYOUT_DRAIN will not be set more than once for an invalid layout.
