RPC task RPC_TASK_QUEUED bit is set must be checked before trying to wake up
task rpc_killall_tasks() because task->tk_waitqueue can not be set (equal to
NULL).
Also, as Trond Myklebust mentioned, such approach (instead of checking
tk_waitqueue to NULL) allows us to "optimise away the call to
rpc_wake_up_queued_task() altogether for those
tasks that aren't queued".
Here is an example of dereferencing of tk_waitqueue equal to NULL:
CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2
-------------------- --------------------- --------------------------
nfs4_run_open_task
rpc_run_task
rpc_execute
rpc_set_active
rpc_make_runnable
(waiting)
rpc_async_schedule
nfs4_open_prepare
nfs_wait_on_sequence
nfs_umount_begin
rpc_killall_tasks
rpc_wake_up_task
rpc_wake_up_queued_task
spin_lock(tk_waitqueue == NULL)
BUG()
rpc_sleep_on
spin_lock(&q->lock)
__rpc_sleep_on
task->tk_waitqueue = q
