workqueue: fix spurious CPU locality WARN from process_one_work()
25511a4776 "workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle workers" added CPU locality sanity check in process_one_work(). It triggers if a worker is executing on a different CPU without UNBOUND or REBIND set. This works for all normal workers but rescuers can trigger this spuriously when they're serving the unbound or a disassociated global_cwq - rescuers don't have either flag set and thus its gcwq->cpu can be a different value including %WORK_CPU_UNBOUND. Fix it by additionally testing %GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: "Paul E.
