commit d9a02e016aaf5a57fb44e9a5e6da8ccd3b9e2e70 upstream.
When neither "no_read_workqueue" nor "no_write_workqueue" are enabled,
tasklet_trylock() in crypt_dec_pending() may still return false due to
an uninitialized state, and dm-crypt will unnecessarily do io completion
in io_queue workqueue instead of current context.
Fix this by adding an 'in_tasklet' flag to dm_crypt_io struct and
initialize it to false in crypt_io_init(). Set this flag to true in
kcryptd_queue_crypt() before calling tasklet_schedule(). If set
crypt_dec_pending() will punt io completion to a workqueue.
This also nicely avoids the tasklet_trylock/unlock hack when tasklets
aren't in use.
Fixes: 8e14f610159d ("dm crypt: do not call bio_endio() from the dm-crypt tasklet")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
