kthread: Fix PF_KTHREAD vs to_kthread() race

mainline inclusion
from mainline-v5.13-rc1
commit 3a7956e2
bugzilla: 52510 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4DDEL

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3a7956e25e1d7b3c148569e78895e1f3178122a9

--------------------------------

The kthread_is_per_cpu() construct relies on only being called on
PF_KTHREAD tasks (per the WARN in to_kthread). This gives rise to the
following usage pattern:

	if ((p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) && kthread_is_per_cpu(p))

However, as reported by syzcaller, this is broken. The scenario is:

	CPU0				CPU1 (running p)

	(p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) // true

					begin_new_exec()
					  me->flags &= ~(PF_KTHREAD|...);
	kthread_is_per_cpu(p)
	  to_kthread(p)
	    WARN(!(p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) <-- *SPLAT*

Introduce __to_kthread() that omits the WARN and is sure to check both
values.

Use this to remove the problematic pattern for kthread_is_per_cpu()
and fix a number of other kthread_*() functions that have similar
issues but are currently not used in ways that would expose the
problem.

Notably kthread_func() is only ever called on 'current', while
kthread_probe_data() is only used for PF_WQ_WORKER, which implies the
task is from kthread_create*().
