A umount hang is possible when a race occurs between the umount
process and the xfsaild kthread. The following sequences outline
the race:
xfsaild: kthread_should_stop()
=> return false, so xfsaild continue
umount: set_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP, &kthread->flags)
=> by kthread_stop()
umount: wake_up_process()
=> because xfsaild is still running, so 0 is returned
xfsaild: __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)
xfsaild: schedule()
=> now, xfsaild will wait indefinitely
umount: wait_for_completion()
=> and umount will hang
To fix that, we need to check kthread_should_stop() after we set
the task state, so the xfsaild will either see the stop bit and
exit or the task state is reset to runnable by wake_up_process()
such that it isn't scheduled out indefinitely and detects the stop
bit at the next iteration.
