start_task() calls create_singlethread_workqueue() and not checked the
ret value, which may return NULL. And a null-ptr-deref may happen:
start_task()
create_singlethread_workqueue() # failed, led_wq is NULL
queue_delayed_work()
queue_delayed_work_on()
__queue_delayed_work() # warning here, but continue
__queue_work() # access wq->flags, null-ptr-deref
Check the ret value and return -ENOMEM if it is NULL.

/* ** HP VISUALIZE Workstation PCI Bus Defect ** ** "HP has discovered a potential system defect that can affect ** the behavior of five models of HP VISUALIZE workstations when ** equipped with third-party or customer-installed PCI I/O expansion ** cards. The defect is limited to the HP C180, C160, C160L, B160L, ** and B132L VISUALIZE workstations, and will only be encountered ** when data is transmitted through PCI I/O expansion cards on the ** PCI bus. HP-supplied graphics cards that utilize the PCI bus are ** not affected." ** ** http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Home.jsp?locale=en_US&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=44443 ** ** Product First Good Serial Number ** C200/C240 (US) US67350000 **B132L+/B180 (US) US67390000 ** C200 (Europe) 3713G01000 ** B180L (Europe) 3720G01000 ** ** Note that many boards were fixed/replaced under a free replacement ** program.
