Title:
  Using asynchronous I/O can cause data corruption or a kernel oops

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  How to reproduce:

  umount /mnt
  rm /dev/vdisk
  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vdisk bs=1M count=1K
  mkfs.ext4 -F -O ^has_journal /dev/vdisk
  mount -o loop /dev/vdisk /mnt
  rm -f /mnt/test.*
  fio --verify=md5 -rw=randwrite --size=10m --bs=4k --loops=10000 --iodepth=64 --group_reporting --sync=1 --direct=1 --ioengine=libaio --directory=/mnt --name=test --thread --numjobs=16

  Result:
  - Sometimes fio complains about data corruption, e.g.
  verify: bad magic header 0, wanted acca at file /mnt/test.7.0 offset 10481664, length 0
  - Sometimes a kernel oops is triggered
