commit e6db6f9398dadcbc06318a133d4c44a2d3844e61 upstream.
We have two types of task_work based creation, one is using an existing
worker to setup a new one (eg when going to sleep and we have no free
workers), and the other is allocating a new worker. Only the latter
should be freed when we cancel task_work creation for a new worker.
Fixes: af82425c6a2d ("io_uring/io-wq: free worker if task_work creation is canceled")

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.
