io-wq: exclusively gate signal based exit on get_signal() return
io-wq threads block all signals, except SIGKILL and SIGSTOP. We should not need any extra checking of signal_pending or fatal_signal_pending, rely exclusively on whether or not get_signal() tells us to exit. The original debugging of this issue led to the false positive that we were exiting on non-fatal signals, but that is not the case. The issue was around races with nr_workers accounting. Fixes: 87c169665578 ("io-wq: ensure we exit if thread group is exiting") Fixes: 15e20db2e0ce ("io-wq: only exit on fatal signals") Reported-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
