+From 69e4747ee9727d660b88d7e1efe0f4afcb35db1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>
+Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2012 17:07:28 +0200
+Subject: [PATCH] Unused iocbs in a batch should not be accounted as active.
+
+Since commit 080d676de095 ("aio: allocate kiocbs in batches") iocbs are
+allocated in a batch during processing of first iocbs. All iocbs in a
+batch are automatically added to ctx->active_reqs list and accounted in
+ctx->reqs_active.
+
+If one (not the last one) of iocbs submitted by an user fails, further
+iocbs are not processed, but they are still present in ctx->active_reqs
+and accounted in ctx->reqs_active. This causes process to stuck in a D
+state in wait_for_all_aios() on exit since ctx->reqs_active will never
+go down to zero. Furthermore since kiocb_batch_free() frees iocb
+without removing it from active_reqs list the list become corrupted
+which may cause oops.
+
+Fix this by removing iocb from ctx->active_reqs and updating
+ctx->reqs_active in kiocb_batch_free().
