If another transaction locks and invalidates the buffer (freeing an inode chunk, for example) in the meantime, the bli is flagged as stale, the dirty state is cleared and the bli remains in the AIL. If a shutdown occurs before the transaction that has invalidated the buffer is committed, the transaction is ultimately aborted. The log items are flagged as such and ->iop_unlock() handles the aborted items. Because the bli is clean (due to the invalidation), ->iop_unlock() unconditionally releases it. The log item may still reside in the AIL, however, which means the I/O completion handler may still run and attempt to access it. This results in assert failure due to the release of the bli while still present in the AIL and a subsequent NULL dereference and panic in the buffer I/O completion handling. This can be reproduced by running generic/388 in repetition. To avoid this problem, update xfs_buf_item_unlock() to first check whether the bli is aborted and if so, remove it from the AIL before it is released. This ensures that the bli is no longer accessed during the shutdown sequence after it has been freed.
