Subject: kthread_worker: check all delayed works when destroy kthread worker
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2023 22:42:30 +0800
When destroying a kthread worker warn if there are still some pending
delayed works. This indicates that the caller should clear all pending
delayed works before destroying the kthread worker.
