Hello, Applied the following to wq/for-4.11-fixes. Thanks. ------ 8< ------ >From 637fdbae60d6cb9f6e963c1079d7e0445c86ff7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org> Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2017 15:33:42 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: trigger WARN if queue_delayed_work() is called with NULL @wq If queue_delayed_work() gets called with NULL @wq, the kernel will oops asynchronuosly on timer expiration which isn't too helpful in tracking down the offender. This actually happened with smc. __queue_delayed_work() already does several input sanity checks synchronously. Add NULL @wq check.
