I got a UAF report when doing fuzz test:

If apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails in alloc_workqueue(), it will call put_pwq() which invoke a work queue to call pwq_unbound_release_workfn() and use the 'wq'. The 'wq' allocated in alloc_workqueue() will be freed in error path when apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails. So it will lead a UAF.
CPU0 CPU1 alloc_workqueue() alloc_and_link_pwqs() apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails apply_wqattrs_cleanup() schedule_work(&pwq->unbound_release_work) kfree(wq) worker_thread() pwq_unbound_release_workfn() <- trigger uaf here
If apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails, the new pwq are not linked, it doesn't hold any reference to the 'wq', 'wq' is invalid to access in the worker, so add check pwq if linked to fix this.
