Subject: [PATCH -next] io-wq: Remove duplicate code in io_workqueue_create()

While task_work_add() in io_workqueue_create() is true,
then duplicate code is executed:

  -> clear_bit_unlock(0, &worker->create_state);
  -> io_worker_release(worker);
  -> atomic_dec(&acct->nr_running);
  -> io_worker_ref_put(wq);
  -> return false;

  -> clear_bit_unlock(0, &worker->create_state); // back to io_workqueue_create()
  -> io_worker_release(worker);
  -> kfree(worker);

The io_worker_release() and clear_bit_unlock() are executed twice.

Fixes: 3146cba99aa2 ("io-wq: make worker creation resilient against signals")
