and this barr->done is for work "wfc.work".

So those two barr->done could not be the same instance, IIUC. Therefore
the deadlock case is not possible.

The problem here is all barr->done instances are initialized at
insert_wq_barrier() and they belongs to the same lock class, to fix
this, we need to differ barr->done with different lock classes based on
the corresponding works.

How about the this(only compilation test):
