io-wq worker may submit a task_work to the master task and upon
io_worker_exit() wait for the tw to get executed. The problem appears
when the master task is waiting in coredump.c:

468                     freezer_do_not_count();
469                     wait_for_completion(&core_state->startup);
470                     freezer_count();

Apparently having some dependency on children threads getting everything
stuck. Workaround it by cancelling the taks_work callback that causes it
before going into io_worker_exit() waiting.

p.s. probably a better option is to not submit tw elevating the refcount
in the first place, but let's leave this excercise for the future.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
