commit dfea9fce29fda6f2f91161677e0e0d9b671bc099 upstream. The purpose of io_uring_cancel_files() is to wait for all requests matching ->files to go/be cancelled. We should first drop files of a request in io_req_drop_files() and only then make it undiscoverable for io_uring_cancel_files. First drop, then delete from list. It's ok to leave req->id->files dangling, because it's not dereferenced by cancellation code, only compared against. It would potentially go to sleep and be awaken by following in io_req_drop_files() wake_up().

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.
