When queue_work() is used in irq (not in task context), there is
a potential case that trigger NULL pointer dereference.
----------------------------------------------------------------
worker_thread()
|-spin_lock_irq()
|-process_one_work()
|-worker->current_pwq = pwq
|-spin_unlock_irq()
|-worker->current_func(work)
|-spin_lock_irq()
|-worker->current_pwq = NULL
|-spin_unlock_irq()
//interrupt here
|-irq_handler
|-__queue_work()
//assuming that the wq is draining
|-is_chained_work(wq)
|-current_wq_worker()
//Here, 'current' is the interrupted worker!
|-current->current_pwq is NULL here!
|-schedule()
----------------------------------------------------------------
Avoid it by checking for task context in current_wq_worker(), and
if not in task context, we shouldn't use the 'current' to check the
condition.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
