Subject: Locking issues w/ functionfs gadget and aio?

After setting up functionfs for adb w/ 4.1-rc7, I noticed some flakey behavior.
I enabled some lock debugging and got the following:

It seems we're stuck on the kioctx.ctx_lock, and reviewing that lock
usage I don't see any problems in fs/aio.c right off.

So I'm guessing the f_fs.c code is somehow not initializing the lock
structure, or maybe calling kiocb_set_cancel_fn() from the wrong
context?

Anyway, I was curious if anyone else has seen similar issues or had
suggestions for further debugging.  I've seen this issue as well with
4.1-rc1.

thanks
