The bug is that ownership of some memory is passed to a kthread started by
kthread_run(), but the kthread can be stopped before it actually executes the
threadfn. See the code in kernel/kthread.c:
ret = -EINTR;
if (!test_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP, &self->flags)) {
cgroup_kthread_ready();
__kthread_parkme(self);
ret = threadfn(data);
}
So, apparently the thread parameters must always be owned by the owner of the
kthread, not by the kthread itself. It seems like this would be a common
mistake in kernel code; I'm surprised this doesn't come up more...
