[PATCH] kernel/workqueue: Only unregister a lockdep key if it has been registered first

[Bart Van Assche]

Only call wq_unregister_lockdep() if wq_register_lockdep() has been
called first. This patch avoids that the following warning is reported:

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6970 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:4925 lockdep_unregister_key+0x21c/0x4e0

That warning refers to the following source code statement:

	WARN_ON_ONCE(!found);

workqueue: Only unregister a registered lockdep key

The recent change to prevent use after free and a memory leak introduced an
unconditional call to wq_unregister_lockdep() in the error handling
path. If the lockdep key had not been registered yet, then the lockdep core
emits a warning.

Only call wq_unregister_lockdep() if wq_register_lockdep() has been
called first.
