Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

The constraint from the zpool use of z3fold_destroy_pool() is there are
no outstanding handles to memory (so no active allocations), but it is
possible for there to be outstanding work on either of the two wqs in
the pool.
If there is work queued on pool->compact_workqueue when it is called,
z3fold_destroy_pool() will do:
z3fold_destroy_pool()
destroy_workqueue(pool->release_wq)
destroy_workqueue(pool->compact_wq)
drain_workqueue(pool->compact_wq)
do_compact_page(zhdr)
kref_put(&zhdr->refcount)
__release_z3fold_page(zhdr, ...)
queue_work_on(pool->release_wq, &pool->work) *BOOM*
So compact_wq needs to be destroyed before release_wq.
