+Subject: [PATCH 352/353] workqueue: Fix deadlock due to recursive locking of
+ pool->lock
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=813609bc5c58e47a292c3e8cbe961c494e4670a1
+
+Upstream commit d8bb65ab70f7 ("workqueue: Use rcuwait for wq_manager_wait")
+replaced the waitqueue with rcuwait in the workqueue code. This change
+involved removing the acquisition of pool->lock in put_unbound_pool(),
+as it also adds the function wq_manager_inactive() which acquires this same
+lock and is called one line later as a parameter to rcu_wait_event().
+
+However, the backport of this commit in the PREEMPT_RT patchset
+4.19.255-rt114 (patch 347) missed the removal of the acquisition of
+pool->lock in put_unbound_pool(). This leads to a deadlock due to
+recursive locking of pool->lock, as shown below in lockdep:
+
+[ 252.083713] WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
+[ 252.083718] 4.19.269-3.ph3-rt #1-photon Not tainted
+[ 252.083721] --------------------------------------------
+[ 252.083733] kworker/2:0/33 is trying to acquire lock:
+[ 252.083747] 000000000b7b1ceb (&pool->lock/1){....}, at:
+put_unbound_pool+0x10d/0x260
+
+[ 252.083857]
+ but task is already holding lock:
+[ 252.083860] 000000000b7b1ceb (&pool->lock/1){....}, at:
+put_unbound_pool+0xbd/0x260
+
+[ 252.083876]
+ other info that might help us debug this:

+[ 252.083900] CPU0
+[ 252.083903] ----
+[ 252.083904] lock(&pool->lock/1);
+[ 252.083911] lock(&pool->lock/1);
+[ 252.083919]
+ *** DEADLOCK ***
+
+[ 252.083921] May be due to missing lock nesting notation
+
+Fix this deadlock by removing the pool->lock acquisition in
+put_unbound_pool().
