WARNING in schedule_bh

["Dae R. Jeong" <threeearcat@gmail.com>]

Hello,

During fuzzing, I observed a few warnings in the floppy driver, which
seems similar with the one found by Syzkaller.
(https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=7c17d936536dc3864e5df2d79ea11cdd946f81bf).

One of the warning reports is as follow:

------------------------------------

A similar warning seems to occur in places where schedule_bh() is
called (e.g., floppy_queue_rq, floppy_interrupt, ...).

I am trying to understand why this happens. The below execution
scenario is my best guess (but different with the above call
trace). Since I don't fully understand the semantic of the floppy
driver, please execuse me if this is wrong.


fd_locked_ioctl(FDRESET)      kworkerd                                  floppy_interrupt
  user_reset_fdc()
    cont = &reset_cont;
    wait_til_done(reset_fdc)
      schedule_bh(reset_fdc)
	  wait_event(command_done)
                              reset_fdc()
                                do_floppy = reset_interrupt
                                /* triggering an interrupt
                                   as stated in the comment */
                                                                        handler = do_floppy // reset_interrupt
                                                                        schedule_bh(handler)
                              reset_interrupt()
                                success_and_wakeup // reset_cont.redo
								  genric_success()
                                    generic_done(1)  // reset_cont.done
                                      cont = &wakeup_cont
                                  do_wakeup()      // wakeup_cont.redo
                                    reschedule_timeout()
                                    cont = NULL
                                    wake_up(command_done) // fd_locked_ioctl() can now resume

                              floppy_shutdown() // invoked by the above reschedule_timeout()
                                process_fd_request() // cont is NULL by reset_interrupt()
                                  schedule_bh(redo_fd_request)
    process_fd_request()
      schedule_bh(redo_fd_request) <- WARNING


So, for me, concurrent execution of floppy_shutdown() and
fd_locked_ioctl() is suspicious. Could you please check the above
scenario is reasonable?
