net: linkwatch: use system_unbound_wq
linkwatch_event() grabs possibly very contended RTNL mutex. system_wq is not suitable for such work. Inspired by many noisy syzbot reports. 3 locks held by kworker/0:7/5266: #0: ffff888015480948 ((wq_completion)events){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work kernel/workqueue.c:3206 [inline] #0: ffff888015480948 ((wq_completion)events){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_scheduled_works+0x90a/0x1830 kernel/workqueue.c:3312 #1: ffffc90003f6fd00 ((linkwatch_work).work){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: process_one_work kernel/workqueue.c:3207 [inline] , at: process_scheduled_works+0x945/0x1830 kernel/workqueue.c:3312 #2: ffffffff8fa6f208 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: linkwatch_event+0xe/0x60 net/core/link_watch.c:276 Reported-by: syzbot <syzkaller@googlegroups.com> Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reviewed-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@amazon.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240805085821.1616528-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
