Thanks. so the previous
syzbot has tested the proposed patch but the reproducer is still triggering an issue:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for DEV to become free
unregister_netdevice: waiting for batadv0 to become free. Usage count = 3
report suggests that upstream/master has another/unrelated issue(s).
As for the patches from me or Prateek (thanks again!), I think that
the maintainers should take a look.
But at this point I am mostly confident that the bisected commit aaec5a95d5961
("pipe_read: don't wake up the writer if the pipe is still full") is innocent,
it just reveals yet another problem.
I guess (I hope ;) Prateek agrees.
Oleg.
