syzbot found a flush_work() caller who forgot to call INIT_WORK() because that work_struct was allocated by kzalloc(). But the message
INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. turning off the locking correctness validator. by lock_map_acquire() is failing to tell that INIT_WORK() is missing. Since flush_work() without INIT_WORK() is a bug, and INIT_WORK() should set ->func field to non-zero, let's warn if ->func field is zero.
