 520 static void __kthread_bind_mask(struct task_struct *p, const struct cpumask *mask, unsigned int state)
 521 {
 522         unsigned long flags;
 523
 524         if (!wait_task_inactive(p, state)) {
 525                 WARN_ON(1);
 526                 return;
 527         }

That seems to be some internal task state inconsistency.
