We currently have a race where if setup is really slow, we can be
calling io_wq_destroy() before we're done setting up. This will cause
the caller to get stuck waiting for the manager to set things up, but
the manager already exited.
Fix this by doing a sync setup of the manager. This also fixes the case
where if we failed creating workers, we'd also get stuck.
In practice this race window was really small, as we already wait for
the manager to start. Hence someone would have to call io_wq_destroy()
after the task has started, but before it started the first loop. The
reported test case forked tons of these, which is why it became an
issue.

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.
