+workqueue maintainers and Michael who added this WARNING

The WARNING was added in 2017, so I guess it's a change somewhere else
that triggered it.
The WARNING message does not seem to give enough info about the caller
(should it be changed to WARN_ONCE to print a stack?). How can be root
cause this and unbreak linux-next?
