Maybe duplicated by a merge along the way? The second set of workqueues prevails, leaving the originals unused and leaked. In fact, an xfs module can probably even unload cleanly because it doesn't really "own" the workqueue, which by itself is an interesting artifact. This is clearly a bug but I don't think it is truly harmful, so I am not going to send it to Linus for 2.6.39. If you disagree, let me know and I'll send it separately.
