While I have not been able to deduce the exact mechanism how this race condition can produce this warning, I can see that the way the stream is stopped is likely to lead to a race somewhere. This patch simplifies how this is done by first ensuring that the thread is completely stopped before cleaning up the vb2 queue. It does that by setting threadio->stop to true, followed by a call to vb2_queue_error() which will wake up the thread. The thread sees that 'stop' is true and it will exit. The call to kthread_stop() waits until the thread has exited, and only then is the queue cleaned up by calling __vb2_cleanup_fileio(). This is a much cleaner sequence and the warning has now disappeared.
