A recent fix stopped clearing PF_IO_WORKER from current->flags on exit, which meant that we can now call inc/dec running on the worker after it has been removed if it ends up scheduling in/out as part of exit. If this happens after an RCU grace period has passed, then the struct pointed to by current->worker_private may have been freed, and we can now be accessing memory that is freed. Ensure this doesn't happen by clearing the task worker_private field. Both io_wq_worker_running() and io_wq_worker_sleeping() check this field before going any further, and we don't need any accounting etc done after this worker has exited.
