Subject: workqueue: don't clear cwq->thread until it exits
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=36aa9dfc39bf473780439f5629c30f59d677e793;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

workqueue: don't clear cwq->thread until it exits

Pointed out by Srivatsa Vaddagiri.

cleanup_workqueue_thread() sets cwq->thread = NULL and does kthread_stop().
This breaks the "if (cwq->thread == current)" logic in flush_cpu_workqueue()
and leads to deadlock.

Kill the thead first, then clear cwq->thread. workqueue_mutex protects us
from create_workqueue_thread() so we don't need cwq->lock.
