right, the point was that
DECLARE_TASKLET_DISABLED() equals to tasklet_init()
and
{DECLARE_TASKLET(); tasklet_disable();} equals to tasklet_init()

yes, vt does something like this (kbd_bh).

hm, didn't completely fix it. the vt is now happy, unlike usbnet.
and the usbnet case is rather alarming.
static inline void tasklet_schedule(struct tasklet_struct *t)
{
+ WARN_ON_ONCE(atomic_read(&t->count) < 1);
+
if (!test_and_set_bit(TASKLET_STATE_SCHED, &t->state))
__tasklet_schedule(t);
}
gives me the following backtrace

and there are several big problems here.
looking at usbnet_probe()
int
usbnet_probe (struct usb_interface *udev, const struct usb_device_id *prod)
{
....
skb_queue_head_init (&dev->done);
skb_queue_head_init(&dev->rxq_pause);
dev->bh.func = usbnet_bh;
dev->bh.data = (unsigned long) dev;
INIT_WORK (&dev->kevent, usbnet_deferred_kevent);
....
first, sometimes tasklet initialisation is performed directly, not via
tasklet_init().
second, that 't->count == 0' eq 'tasklet_init()' is assumed to be sort of
a contract. so a simple kzalloc() works fine, and the patch breaks it.
a simple grep in drivers/net/
_next$ git grep tasklet_sched drivers/net/ | awk '{print $1}' | uniq | wc -l
60
_next$ git grep tasklet_init drivers/net/ | awk '{print $1}' | uniq | wc -l
52
and I don't know how many call-sites outside of drivers/net/ do something
like this.
