[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 22/34] md: protect md_unregister_thread from reentrancy
From: Sasha Levin

From: Guoqing Jiang <guoqing.jiang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 1e267742283a4b5a8ca65755c44166be27e9aa0f ]
Generally, the md_unregister_thread is called with reconfig_mutex, but
raid_message in dm-raid doesn't hold reconfig_mutex to unregister thread,
so md_unregister_thread can be called simulitaneously from two call sites
in theory.
Then after previous commit which remove the protection of reconfig_mutex
for md_unregister_thread completely, the potential issue could be worse
than before.
Let's take pers_lock at the beginning of function to ensure reentrancy.
