[PATCH v2] workqueue: Add rcu lock check after work execute end

From: Xuewen Yan
Date: Tue Jan 09 2024 - 22:28:31 EST


Now the workqueue just check the atomic and lock after
work execute end. However, sometimes, drivers's work
may don't unlock rcu after call rcu_read_lock().
And as a result, it would cause rcu stall, but the rcu stall warning
can not dump the work func, because the work has finished.

In order to quickly discover those works that do not call
rcu_read_unlock after rcu_read_lock(). Add the rcu lock check.

Use rcu_preempt_depth() to check the work's rcu status,
Normally, this value is 0. If this value is bigger than 0,
it means the work are still holding rcu lock.
At this time, we print err info and print the work func.
