In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix hang during unmount when block group reclaim task is running When we start an unmount, at close_ctree(), if we have the reclaim task
running and in the middle of a data block group relocation, we can trigger
a deadlock when stopping an async reclaim task, producing a trace like the
