From 091e26dfc156aeb3b73bc5c5f277e433ad39331c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 22:48:17 -0500 Subject: ext4: fix possible use-after-free with AIO Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference. Once AIO is completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can be freed from memory. So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete() is the last thing we do with the inode.
