From 4e59409891c9cc30cb4d5d73250b0c968af8e39b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Milan Broz Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2008 13:37:07 +0100 Subject: dm crypt: fix async inc_pending The pending reference count must be incremented *before* the async work is queued to another thread, not after. Otherwise there's a race if the work completes and decrements the reference count before it gets incremented.
