Given here and in stackmap are the only two users outside of kernel/irq_work.c,
it may probably be good to add a small helper to include/linux/irq_work.h and
use it for both.

Perhaps something like ...

static inline bool irq_work_busy(struct irq_work *work)
{
	return READ_ONCE(work->flags) & IRQ_WORK_BUSY;
}
