[ Upstream commit bb9025f4432f8c158322cf2c04c2b492f23eb511 ]
kthread creation failure is invalidly handled inside do_map_benchmark().
The put_task_struct() calls on the error path are supposed to balance the
get_task_struct() calls which only happen after all the kthreads are
successfully created. Rollback using kthread_stop() for already created
kthreads in case of such failure.
In normal situation call kthread_stop_put() to gracefully stop kthreads
and put their task refcounts. This should be done for all started
kthreads.

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.
