[PATCH 6.6] Revert "dm-crypt, dm-verity: disable tasklets"

From: Li Lingfeng
Date: Thu Apr 11 2024 - 05:15:09 EST


This reverts commit 5735a2671ffb70ea29ca83969fe01316ee2ed6fc which is
commit 0a9bab391e336489169b95cb0d4553d921302189 upstream.

Tasklet is thought to cause memory corruption [1], so it was disabled in
dm-crypt and dm-verity. However, memory corruption may not happen since
cc->io_queue is created without WQ_UNBOUND [2].
Revert commit 5735a2671ffb ("dm-crypt, dm-verity: disable tasklets") to
bring tasklet back.
