syz.0.17/4274 is trying to acquire lock:

 ((work_completion)(&hdev->bg_scan_update)

, at: __flush_work+0xcc/0x1bc kernel/workqueue.c:3087

, at: rfkill_fop_write+0x238/0x5cc net/rfkill/core.c:1266

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  (work_completion)(&hdev->bg_scan_update) --> &data->open_mutex --> rfkill_global_mutex

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(rfkill_global_mutex);
                               lock(&data->open_mutex);
                               lock(rfkill_global_mutex);
  lock((work_completion)(&hdev->bg_scan_update));
