[ Upstream commit 9d10a13d1e4c349b76f1c675a874a7f981d6d3b4 ] psi_group_cpu->tasks, represented by the unsigned int, stores the number of tasks that could be stalled on a psi resource(io/mem/cpu). Decrementing these counters at zero leads to wrapping which further leads to the psi_group_cpu->state_mask is being set with the respective pressure state. This could result into the unnecessary time sampling for the pressure state thus cause the spurious psi events. This can further lead to wrong actions being taken at the user land based on these psi events. Though psi_bug is set under these conditions but that just for debug purpose. Fix it by decrementing the ->tasks count only when it is non-zero.

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.
