The point of using set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer was that it already did what is necessary. There are now restrictions on when set_child_tid can be initialized and when set_child_tid can be used in schedule_tail. Which indicates that continuing to use set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer is a bad idea. Instead of continuing to use the set_child_tid field of task_struct generalize the pf_io_worker field of task_struct and use it to hold the kthread pointer. Rename pf_io_worker (which is a void * pointer) to worker_private so it can be used to store kthreads struct kthread pointer. Update the kthread code to store the kthread pointer in the worker_private field. Remove the places where set_child_tid had to be dealt with carefully because kthreads also used it.

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.
