Syzkaller reported a memory leak as follows:

[...]>
In the cpu_map_update_elem flow, when kthread_stop is called before
calling the threadfn of rcpu->kthread, since the KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP bit
of kthread has been set by kthread_stop, the threadfn of rcpu->kthread
will never be executed, and rcpu->refcnt will never be 0, which will
lead to the allocated rcpu, rcpu->queue and rcpu->queue->queue cannot be
released.

Calling kthread_stop before executing kthread's threadfn will return
-EINTR. We can complete the release of memory resources in this state.

LGTM, thanks for fixing this.
