In 51697d393922 ("workqueue: use generic attach/detach routine for rescuers"), The rescuer detaches itself from the pool before put_pwq() so that the put_unbound_pool() will not destroy the rescuer-attached pool.
It is unnecessary, worker_detach_from_pool() can be used as the last statement to access to the pool as the same as the regular workers, put_unbound_pool() will wait for it to detach and then free the pool. So we move the worker_detach_from_pool() down, make it coincide with the regular workers.
