At CPU-hotplug time, unbind_workers() may preempt a worker while it is
going to sleep. In that case the following scenario can happen:
unbind_workers() wq_worker_sleeping()
-------------- -------------------
if (worker->flags & WORKER_NOT_RUNNING)
return;
//PREEMPTED by unbind_workers
worker->flags |= WORKER_UNBOUND;
[...]
atomic_set(&pool->nr_running, 0);
//resume to worker
atomic_dec_and_test(&pool->nr_running);
After unbind_worker() resets pool->nr_running, the value is expected to
remain 0 until the pool ever gets rebound in case cpu_up() is called on
the target CPU in the future. But here the race leaves pool->nr_running
with a value of -1, triggering the following warning when the worker goes
idle:

Also due to this incorrect "nr_running == -1", all sorts of hazards can
happen, starting with queued works being ignored because no workers are
awaken at insert_work() time.
Fix this with checking again the worker flags while pool->lock is locked.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
