Is more than one process stuck in state D when the hang occurs?  If so, 
what does a backtrace show for the stuck processes (or are there any 
hung process warnings issued)?  It is entirely possible the bug isn't 
caused by the referenced commit, as the commit you're pointing to merely 
makes io_destroy() syscall wait for all aio outstanding to complete 
before returning.
