This requeue_work may race with concurrent nvme_ns_head_make_request() that do not observe the live path yet. Such concurrent requests may by made by either: - New IO submission. - Requeue_work triggered by nvme_failover_req() or another ana_work. A race may cause requeue_work capture the state of requeue_list before more requests get onto the list. These requests will stay on the list forever unless requeue_work is triggered again. In order to prevent such race, nvme_state_set_live() should synchronize_srcu(&head->srcu) before triggering the requeue_work and prevent nvme_ns_head_make_request referencing an old snapshot of the path list.
