Otherwise io_wq_worker_{running,sleeping}() may dereference an
invalid pointer (in future). Currently all users of create_io_thread()
are fine and get task->pf_io_worker = NULL implicitly from the
wq_manager, which got it either from the userspace thread
of the sq_thread, which explicitly reset it to NULL.
I think it's safer to always reset it in order to avoid future
problems.

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.
