Subject: mm/damon/reclaim: schedule 'damon_reclaim_timer' only after 'system_wq' is initialized
Date: Sat, 4 Jun 2022 19:50:51 +0000

Commit 059342d1dd4e ("mm/damon/reclaim: fix the timer always stays
active") made DAMON_RECLAIM's 'enabled' parameter store callback,
'enabled_store()', to schedule 'damon_reclaim_timer'.  The scheduling uses
'system_wq', which is initialized in 'workqueue_init_early()'.  As kernel
parameters parsing function ('parse_args()') is called before
'workqueue_init_early()', 'enabled_store()' can be executed before
'workqueue_init_early()' and end up accessing the uninitialized
'system_wq'.  As a result, the booting hang[1].  This commit fixes the
issue by checking if the initialization is done before scheduling the
timer.
