Linus Torvalds 278924cb99 Fix workqueue trace event unsafe string reference
After adding a verifier to test all strings printed in trace events
 to make sure they either point to a string on the ring buffer,
 or to read only core kernel memory, it triggered on a workqueue
 trace event. The trace event workqueue_queue_work references
 the allocated name of the workqueue in the output. If the workqueue
 is freed before the trace is read, then the trace will dereference
 freed memory. Update the trace event to use the __string(), __assign_str(),
 and __get_str() helpers to handle such cases.

 "Fix workqueue trace event unsafe string reference

  After adding a verifier to test all strings printed in trace events to
  make sure they either point to a string on the ring buffer, or to read
  only core kernel memory, it triggered on a workqueue trace event. The
  trace event workqueue_queue_work references the allocated name of the
  workqueue in the output. If the workqueue is freed before the trace is
  read, then the trace will dereference freed memory.
