Thanks for reporting Sergey.

seems to be in conflict with

Static helpers also needs to follow the API.

 #define DECLARE_TASKLET_DISABLED(name, func, data) \

as well as with the tasklet_{disable, enable} helpers

Those are fine since they work like a pair and the use count
is always balanced.

Am assuming one of the driver in your test is using the DECLARE_TASKLET
to init the tasklet and killed by tasklet_kill() which leaves that
tasklet to be still scheduled by tasklet action.

Can you please try below patch and see if you still see the issue ?
Attaching the same, just in case mailer eat the tabs.

Subject: [PATCH] softirq: fix DECLARE_TASKLET[_DISABLE] macros init state

In linux-next, commit 1f5e9c3bc47f ("softirq: fix tasklet_kill() and its users")
changed the init state of the tasklet but missed to update the macros.

Fix them too.
