From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenb...@linbit.com> Disconnect should wait for pending bitmap IO. But if that bitmap IO is not happening, because it is waiting for pending application IO, and there is no progress, because the fencing policy suspended application IO because of the disconnect, then we deadlock.
The bitmap writeout in this case does not care for concurrent application IO, so there is no point waiting for it.
