writeback: Fix lost wake-up shutting down writeback thread
Setting the task state here may cause us to miss the wake up from
kthread_stop(), so we need to recheck kthread_should_stop() or risk
sleeping forever in the following schedule().
Symptom was an indefinite hang on an NFSv4 mount. (NFSv4 may create
multiple mounts in a temporary namespace while traversing the mount
path, and since the temporary namespace is immediately destroyed, it may
end up destroying a mount very soon after it was created, possibly
making this race more likely.)
INFO: task mount.nfs4:4314 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
