4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.willi...@intel.com>

commit 33cc2c9667561b224215e6dfb5bf98e8fa17914e upstream.

The notification of scrub completion happens within the scrub workqueue.
That can clearly race someone running scrub_show() and work_busy()
before the workqueue has a chance to flush the recently completed work.
Add a flag to reliably indicate the idle vs busy state. Without this
change applications using poll(2) to wait for scrub-completion may
falsely wakeup and read ARS as being busy even though the thread is
going idle and then hang indefinitely.

Fixes: bc6ba8085842 ("nfit, address-range-scrub: rework and simplify ARS...")
