block: fix use after free in __blkdev_direct_IO
We can't dereference the dio structure after submitting the last bio for this request, as I/O completion might have happened before the code is run. Introduce a local is_sync variable instead. Fixes: 542ff7bf ("block: new direct I/O implementation") Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reported-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Tested-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
