During destroy setting live = 0 and then synchronize_srcu() prevents
num_pending_prefetch from incrementing, and also, ensures that all work
holding that count is queued on the WQ. Testing before causes races of the
form:
CPU0 CPU1
dereg_mr()
mlx5_ib_advise_mr_prefetch()
srcu_read_lock()
num_pending_prefetch_inc()
if (!live)
live = 0
atomic_read() == 0
// skip flush_workqueue()
atomic_inc()
queue_work();
srcu_read_unlock()
WARN_ON(atomic_read()) // Fails
Swap the order so that the synchronize_srcu() prevents this.

README
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.
