> schedule_work() dispatches key_gc_work on the per-CPU system_wq, which can
> choke the queue:
> 
> BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x2 nice=0 stuck for 30s!
> 
> Queue the work on system_dfl_long_wq instead, which is an unbounded wq for
> long-running tasks i.e., it has the WQ_BOUND flag set and thus cannot hog
> the CPU core.
