async-thread.c

The current implementation of worker threads in Btrfs has races in
worker stopping code, which cause all kinds of panics and lockups when
running btrfs/011 xfstest in a loop.  The problem is that
btrfs_stop_workers is unsynchronized with respect to check_idle_worker,
check_busy_worker and __btrfs_start_workers.

E.g., check_idle_worker race flow:

       btrfs_stop_workers():            check_idle_worker(aworker):
- grabs the lock
- splices the idle list into the
  working list
- removes the first worker from the
  working list
- releases the lock to wait for
  its kthread's completion
                                  - grabs the lock
                                  - if aworker is on the working list,
                                    moves aworker from the working list
                                    to the idle list
                                  - releases the lock
- grabs the lock
- puts the worker
- removes the second worker from the
  working list
                              ......
        btrfs_stop_workers returns, aworker is on the idle list
                 FS is umounted, memory is freed
                              ......
              aworker is waken up, fireworks ensue

With this applied, I wasn't able to trigger the problem in 48 hours,
whereas previously I could reliably reproduce at least one of these
races within an hour.
