Merge tag 'wq-for-6.6-rc5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo: - Fix access-after-free in pwq allocation error path - Implicitly ordered unbound workqueues should lose the implicit ordering if an attribute change which isn't compatible with ordered operation is requested. However, attribute changes requested through the sysfs interface weren't doing that leaving no way to override the implicit ordering through the sysfs interface. Fix it. - Other doc and misc updates * tag 'wq-for-6.6-rc5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: fix -Wformat-truncation in create_worker workqueue: Override implicit ordered attribute in workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask() workqueue: Use the kmem_cache_free() instead of kfree() to release pwq workqueue: doc: Fix function and sysfs path errors workqueue: Fix UAF report by KASAN in pwq_release_workfn()
