From: Eric Dumazet <eduma...@google.com> It seems commit 4a9d4b02 (switch fput to task_work_add) reintroduced the problem addressed in commit 944be0b2 (close_files(): add scheduling point)
If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets) is killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger a soft lockup.
