      workqueue: Avoid nr_active manipulation in grabbing inactive items · b56c7207
      Lai Jiangshan authored 
      Current try_to_grab_pending() activates the inactive item and
subsequently treats it as though it were a standard activated item.

This approach prevents duplicating handling logic for both active and
inactive items, yet the premature activation of an inactive item
triggers trace_workqueue_activate_work(), yielding an unintended user
space visible side effect.

And the unnecessary increment of the nr_active, which is not a simple
counter now, followed by a counteracted decrement, is inefficient and
complicates the code.

Just remove the nr_active manipulation code in grabbing inactive items.

      workqueue: replace call_rcu by kfree_rcu for simple kmem_cache_free callback · 37c2277f
      Julia Lawall authored 
      Since SLOB was removed, it is not necessary to use call_rcu
when the callback only performs kmem_cache_free. Use
kfree_rcu() directly.

The changes were done using the following Coccinelle semantic patch.
This semantic patch is designed to ignore cases where the callback
function is used in another way.
