kthread_worker: prevent queuing delayed work from timer_fn when it is being canceled
There is a small race window when a delayed work is being canceled and the work still might be queued from the timer_fn: CPU0 CPU1 kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() __kthread_cancel_work_sync() __kthread_cancel_work() work->canceling++; kthread_delayed_work_timer_fn() kthread_insert_work(); BUG: kthread_insert_work() should not get called when work->canceling is set.
