Subject: [PATCH 3/4] task_work: make exit_work externally visible
Date: Tue,  7 Apr 2020 10:02:57 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>

If task_work has already been run on task exit, we don't always know
if it's safe to run again. Most call paths don't really care as they
can never hit this condition, but io_uring would like to call task
work from the fops->release() handler, which can get invoked off
do_exit() where we could have already run exit_task_work().
