dm mpath: flush keventd queue in destructor
The commit fe9cf30e moves dm table event submission from kmultipath queue to kernel kevent queue to avoid a deadlock. There is a possibility of race condition because kevent queue is not flushed in the multipath destructor. The scenario is: - some event happens and is queued to keventd - keventd thread is delayed due to scheuling latency or some other work - multipath device is destroyed - keventd now attempts to process work_struct that is residing in already released memory. The patch flushes the keventd queue in multipath constructor. I've already fixed similar bug in dm-raid1.
