when in "spi_init_queue" func :
"kthread_init_worker(&ctlr->kworker);     (worker->task = NULL)
 ctlr->kworker_task = kthread_run(kthread_worker_fn, &ctlr->kworker,
                                         "%s", dev_name(&ctlr->dev)); "

 in "spi_start_queue" func:
 "kthread_queue_work(&ctlr->kworker, &ctlr->pump_messages);"

 Becasue the kthread_worker_fn is not begin running,  if queue work to worker,
 the "!worker->task" = true, trigger WARN.
