Tejun Heo c70e1779b7 workqueue: Fix pwq->nr_in_flight corruption in try_to_grab_pending()
dd6c3c5441 ("workqueue: Move pwq_dec_nr_in_flight() to the end of work
item handling") relocated pwq_dec_nr_in_flight() after
set_work_pool_and_keep_pending(). However, the latter destroys information
contained in work->data that's needed by pwq_dec_nr_in_flight() including
the flush color. With flush color destroyed, flush_workqueue() can stall
easily when mixed with cancel_work*() usages.

This is easily triggered by running xfstests generic/001 test on xfs:

     INFO: task umount:6305 blocked for more than 122 seconds.
     ...
     task:umount          state:D stack:13008 pid:6305  tgid:6305  ppid:6301   flags:0x00004000

Fix it by stashing work_data before calling set_work_pool_and_keep_pending()
and using the stashed value for pwq_dec_nr_in_flight().
