[merged mm-hotfixes-stable] kthread-unpark-only-parked-kthread.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: kthread: unpark only parked kthread
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kthread-unpark-only-parked-kthread.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: kthread: unpark only parked kthread
Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2024 23:46:34 +0200

Calling into kthread unparking unconditionally is mostly harmless when
the kthread is already unparked. The wake up is then simply ignored
because the target is not in TASK_PARKED state.

However if the kthread is per CPU, the wake up is preceded by a call
to kthread_bind() which expects the task to be inactive and in
TASK_PARKED state, which obviously isn't the case if it is unparked.

As a result, calling kthread_stop() on an unparked per-cpu kthread
triggers such a warning:

Fix this with skipping unecessary unparking while stopping a kthread.
