Can you try latest upstream kernel firstly ? Before spending more time
on the fix.

If I remember correctly, when cancel_writeback_rate_update_dwork() is
not timed out, the cache set memory won't be freed before the
writeback_rate_update worker terminates. It is possible that I miss
something in the code, but I suggest to test with a kernel after v5.3,
and better a v5.8+ kernel.
