DECLARE_COMPLETION_ONSTACK(completion);
#1

...

while ((worker = first_worker(pool))) {
destroy_worker(worker);
pool->detach_completion = &completion;
#2
}

...
unlock;

if (pool->detach_completion)
wait_for_completion();
#3

One thing is separated into 3 places and about 5~7lines.
I hope a single wait_for_completion() or single wait_event().


get_unbound_pool():
fail:
if (pool)
put_unbound_pool(pool);

I think we can change it into:

fail:
if (pool) {
if (pool->id >= 0)
idr_remove(&worker_pool_idr, pool->id);
call_rcu_sched(&pool->rcu, rcu_free_pool);
}

Thanks,
Lai
