When CPU-[un]hotplugs, all workers will be bound to active CPU via
unbind_workers().
But the unbound worker still has a chance to create a new worker, which
has bound the newly created task to pool->attrs->cpumask. But the CPU has
been unplugged.
Please refer to the following scenarios.
CPU0 CPU1

sched_cpu_deactivate(cpu_active_mask clear)

In the crash log, the error enqueued kworker(pid: 25654, name: kworker/3:0)
is a newly created thread, and have bind to a unpluged CPU 3.
Can crash dump can also verify this.

The stack trace of the bad running task was dumped via the following patch:
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
And I think this debug patch needs to be added to the mainline,
it can help us to debug this kind of problem
To fix it, we can use cpu_active_mask when work pool is DISASSOCIATED.

Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
- Move worker task bind to worker_attach_to_pool, remove extra
wq_pool_attach_mutex added.
- Add a timing diagram to make this question clearer.

For unbound pools (get_unbound_pool(), which also has POOL_DISASSOCIATED),
pool->attrs->cpumask should be used if pool->attrs->cpumask has active cpu.
if (cpumask_intersects(pool->attrs->cpumask, cpu_active_mask))
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(worker->task, pool->attrs->cpumask);
else
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(worker->task, wq_unbound_cpumask);
And put it above the "if (pool->flags & POOL_DISASSOCIATED)" code block.
