commit0bca799b92upstream. This patch orders getting budget and driver tag by making sure to acquire driver tag after budget is got, this way can help to avoid the following race: 1) before dispatch request from scheduler queue, get one budget first, then dequeue a request, call it request A. 2) in another IO path for dispatching request B which is from hctx->dispatch, driver tag is got, then try to get budget in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), unfortunately the budget is held by request A. 3) meantime blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() is called for dispatching request A, and try to get driver tag first, unfortunately no driver tag is available because the driver tag is held by request B 4) both two IO pathes can't move on, and IO stall is caused. This issue can be observed when running dbench on USB storage. This patch fixes this issue by always getting budget before getting driver tag.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
