Subject: [PATCH v2] workqueue: Fix UAF report by KASAN in pwq_release_workfn()
Date:   Tue, 19 Sep 2023 16:19:58 +0800
Message-Id: <20230919081958.7071-1-qiang.zhang1211@gmail.com>
Precedence: bulk

Currently, for UNBOUND workqueue allocation failure, the
apply_wqattr_cleanup() will be called and use the pwq_release_worker
kthread to release resources asynchronously. however, the kfree(wq)
is invoked directly in failure path of alloc_workqueue(), this leads
to the following scenario:

This commit therefore flush pwq_release_worker before invoke
kfree(wq).
