Since commit 4977caef05aa ("kthread: work could not be queued when worker being destroyed") there is a warning when kworker is used without the internal 'task' entry properly initialized. Fix this by using a kthread_create_worker() helper instead of open-coding a kworker initialization. This fixes a following warning during SPI controller probe, observed on the Samsung Exynos 5420-based Peach-Pit Chromebook with recent linux-next kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at kernel/kthread.c:817 kthread_queue_work+0xac/0xd4 Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.8.0-rc4-00017-g4977caef05aa #1193 Hardware name: Samsung Exynos (Flattened Device Tree) [<c011184c>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c010d250>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c010d250>] (show_stack) from [<c0517f64>] (dump_stack+0xbc/0xe8) [<c0517f64>] (dump_stack) from [<c01270a8>] (__warn+0xf0/0x108) [<c01270a8>] (__warn) from [<c0127170>] (warn_slowpath_fmt+0xb0/0xb8) [<c0127170>] (warn_slowpath_fmt) from [<c01512a4>] (kthread_queue_work+0xac/0xd4) [<c01512a4>] (kthread_queue_work) from [<c06c38d4>] (spi_start_queue+0x58/0x74) [<c06c38d4>] (spi_start_queue) from [<c06c50d4>] (spi_register_controller+0x53c/0xbe8) [<c06c50d4>] (spi_register_controller) from [<c06c57b4>] (devm_spi_register_controller+0x34/0x6c) [<c06c57b4>] (devm_spi_register_controller) from [<c06cad60>] (s3c64xx_spi_probe+0x3e0/0x7ec) [<c06cad60>] (s3c64xx_spi_probe) from [<c064dc8c>] (platform_drv_probe+0x6c/0xa4) [<c064dc8c>] (platform_drv_probe) from [<c064b2c0>] (really_probe+0x200/0x48c) [<c064b2c0>] (really_probe) from [<c064b6b4>] (driver_probe_device+0x78/0x1fc) [<c064b6b4>] (driver_probe_device) from [<c064ba9c>] (device_driver_attach+0x58/0x60) [<c064ba9c>] (device_driver_attach) from [<c064bb80>] (__driver_attach+0xdc/0x174) [<c064bb80>] (__driver_attach) from [<c06490cc>] (bus_for_each_dev+0x68/0xb4) [<c06490cc>] (bus_for_each_dev) from [<c064a400>] (bus_add_driver+0x158/0x214) [<c064a400>] (bus_add_driver) from [<c064ca54>] (driver_register+0x78/0x110) [<c064ca54>] (driver_register) from [<c0102378>] (do_one_initcall+0x8c/0x424) [<c0102378>] (do_one_initcall) from [<c1001158>] (kernel_init_freeable+0x190/0x204) [<c1001158>] (kernel_init_freeable) from [<c0ab6d44>] (kernel_init+0x8/0x118) [<c0ab6d44>] (kernel_init) from [<c0100114>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x20) Exception stack(0xedd01fb0 to 0xedd01ff8) ... irq event stamp: 173882 hardirqs last enabled at (173881): [<c0abf294>] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x68/0x70 hardirqs last disabled at (173882): [<c0abece0>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x1c/0x58 softirqs last enabled at (171200): [<c027240c>] bdi_register_va+0x178/0x2fc softirqs last disabled at (171198): [<c027239c>] bdi_register_va+0x108/0x2fc ---[ end trace 0fe37f6a9b7e6bc7 ]--- Signed-off-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/spi/spi.c | 26 ++++++++++++-------------- include/linux/spi/spi.h | 6 ++---- 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/spi/spi.c b/drivers/spi/spi.c index 805a51b6f54c..19a03a8d6199 100644 --- a/drivers/spi/spi.c +++ b/drivers/spi/spi.c @@ -1368,7 +1368,7 @@ static void __spi_pump_messages(struct spi_controller *ctlr, bool in_kthread) /* If another context is idling the device then defer */ if (ctlr->idling) { - kthread_queue_work(&ctlr->kworker, &ctlr->pump_messages);
