and _cancel can be simplified a bit. OK, I actually tested the code below, seems to work. Peter, if you think it can work for you and if you agree with the implementation I will be happy to send the patch. The only change outside of task_work.c is that exit_task_work() should call task_work_run() unconditionally. As for cmp_xchg below... Of course it is not strictly needed. But otoh, personally I'd like to have this helper (probably renamed) somewhere in include/linux. Perhaps this is just me, but cmpxchg() always confuses me, and most users only need success_or_not from cmpxchg.
