Re: GPF in aio_migratepage

What is the status of this?

If I understand correctly, the crash I saw is different from what Dave
saw.

There was one patched scheduled for inclusion that fixes Dave's crash. But
what about mine? I have been running 3.13-rc2 for a couple of weeks now with
your other patch, without seeing it again, which suggests it has helped. But
it seems that patch has a locking bug as described by Dave (sleeping under
spinlock)? So this appears unsolved as of yet...

So I just wanted to check that this was not forgotten. Is there something I
can do to help get this sorted out? Should I try to run with unpatched -rc4
for some time to check if it appears again? Anything else?

- Kristian.
