In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: initialize close_work early to avoid warning
We encountered a warning that close_work was canceled before
initialization.
WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 111103 at kernel/workqueue.c:3047 __flush_work+0x19e/0x1b0
Workqueue: events smc_lgr_terminate_work [smc]
RIP: 0010:__flush_work+0x19e/0x1b0
Call Trace:

kthread+0x117/0x130
? __kthread_cancel_work+0x50/0x50

This is because when smc_close_cancel_work is triggered, e.g. the RDMA
driver is rmmod and the LGR is terminated, the conn->close_work is
flushed before initialization, resulting in WARN_ON(!work->func).
__smc_lgr_terminate | smc_connect_{rdma|ism}
-------------------------------------------------------------
| smc_conn_create
| \- smc_lgr_register_conn
for conn in lgr->conns_all |
\- smc_conn_kill |
\- smc_close_active_abort |
\- smc_close_cancel_work |
\- cancel_work_sync |
\- __flush_work |
(close_work) |
| smc_close_init
| \- INIT_WORK(&close_work)
So fix this by initializing close_work before establishing the
connection.
