Commitac0c7cf8be("btrfs: fix crash when tracepoint arguments are freed by wq callbacks") added a void pointer, wtag, which is passed into trace_btrfs_all_work_done() instead of the freed work item. This is silly for a few reasons: 1. The freed work item still has the same address. 2. work is still in scope after it's freed, so assigning wtag doesn't stop anyone from using it. 3. The tracepoint has always taken a void * argument, so assigning wtag doesn't actually make things any more type-safe. (Note that the original bug in commitbc074524e1("btrfs: prefix fsid to all trace events") was that the void * was implicitly casted when it was passed to btrfs_work_owner() in the trace point itself). Instead, let's add some clearer warnings as comments.

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.
