This is with call_rcu().

Then I removed cond_resched(), it does not help, and then I call __i915_gem_free_object_rcu() directly, still the same error,
However, I noticed that sometimes 'queue_work()' return false, which means the work is already queued, how? The worker had been called so 'free_list' is empty:
