From: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> commit 34b3d5344719d14fd2185b2d9459b3abcb8cf9d8 upstream. Patch series "kthread_worker: Fix race between kthread_mod_delayed_work() and kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync()". This patchset fixes the race between kthread_mod_delayed_work() and kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() including proper return value handling. This patch (of 2): Simple code refactoring as a preparation step for fixing a race between kthread_mod_delayed_work() and kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync(). It does not modify the existing behavior.
