Hi Paul

Maybe the check_init_srcu_struct() is always not invoked, for example,
In rcutorture.c,   here is such a definition DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU(srcu_ctl),
but we use torture_type=rcu to test,  there will not be any interface calling
check_init_srcu_struct() to initialize srcu_ctl and set  structure's->delaywork.func 
is process_srcu().
when we unload the rcutorture module, invoke cleanup_srcu_struct()
to flush sup structure's->delaywork.func, due to the func pointer is not initialize,
it's null, will trigger warning.

About kernel/workqueue.c:3167

__flush_work
     if (WARN_ON(!work->func))   <---------trigger waning
	return false;


and  in  init_srcu_struct_fields(ssp, true), wil set srcu_sup->sda_is_static is true
and set srcu_sup-> srcu_gp_seq_needed is zero,  after that when we call
 check_init_srcu_struct() again, it not be initialized again.

Thanks
Zqiang
