At close_ctree() after we have ran delayed iputs either explicitly through
calling btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() or later during the call to
btrfs_commit_super() or btrfs_error_commit_super(), we assert that the
delayed iputs list is empty.
We have (another) race where this assertion might fail because we have
queued an async write into the fs_info->workers workqueue. Here's how it
happens:
1) We are submitting a data bio for an inode that is not the data
relocation inode, so we call btrfs_wq_submit_bio();
2) btrfs_wq_submit_bio() submits a work for the fs_info->workers queue
that will run run_one_async_done();
3) We enter close_ctree(), flush several work queues except
fs_info->workers, explicitly run delayed iputs with a call to
btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() and then again shortly after by calling
btrfs_commit_super() or btrfs_error_commit_super(), which also run
delayed iputs;
4) run_one_async_done() is executed in the work queue, and because there
was an IO error (bio->bi_status is not 0) it calls btrfs_bio_end_io(),
which drops the final reference on the associated ordered extent by
calling btrfs_put_ordered_extent() - and that adds a delayed iput for
the inode;
5) At close_ctree() we find that after stopping the cleaner and
transaction kthreads the delayed iputs list is not empty, failing the
following assertion:
ASSERT(list_empty(&fs_info->delayed_iputs));
Fix this by flushing the fs_info->workers workqueue before running delayed
iputs at close_ctree().
David reported this when running generic/648, which exercises IO error
paths by using the DM error table.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
