When the ring is exiting, as part of the shutdown, poll requests are removed. But io_poll_remove_all() does not remove entries when finding them, and since completions are done out-of-band, we can find and remove the same entry multiple times. We do guard the poll execution by poll ownership, but that does not exclude us from reissuing a new one once the previous removal ownership goes away. This can race with poll execution as well, where we then end up seeing req->apoll be NULL because a previous task_work requeue finished the request. Remove the poll entry when we find it and get ownership of it. This prevents multiple invocations from finding it.

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.
