From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>
commit e47498afeca9a0c6d07eeeacc46d563555a3f677 upstream.
There's a small race here where the task_work could finish and drop
the worker itself, so that by the time that task_work_add() returns
with a successful addition we've already put the worker.
The worker callbacks clear this bit themselves, so we don't actually
need to manually clear it in the caller. Get rid of it.
