I think above concurrent scenario is not possible as well.

exit_io_context() doesn't release ioc refcount before ioc_exit_icqs() is
done, so that ioc_release_fn() can never concurrent with
ioc_exit_icqs().

do_exit
  exit_io_context
   ioc_exit_icqs
   put_io_context -> ioc_release_fn won't be called before this

By the way, above change doesn't make sense to me as well.
ioc_exit_icq() is called before setting ICQ_DESTROYED, hence if
ICQ_DESTROYED is set, then ICQ_EXITED is set as well, in this case
ioc_exit_icq() won't do anything.

I think I do found a problem, but I'm not sure it's the same in your
case, can you try the following patch?
