Re: [syzbot] KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in do_wait_for_common

[syzbot]

Hello,

syzbot has tested the proposed patch but the reproducer is still triggering an issue:
possible deadlock in flush_workqueue

usb 6-1: r8712u: Loading firmware from "rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin"
usb 6-1: Direct firmware load for rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin failed with error -2
usb 6-1: Falling back to sysfs fallback for: rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin
usb 6-1: r8712u: Firmware request failed

kworker/0:3/3159 is trying to acquire lock:

ffff888011064d38 ((wq_completion)events){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work+0x7aa/0x10c0 kernel/workqueue.c:2249

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

  lock((wq_completion)events);
  lock((wq_completion)events);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation
