Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix pcluster use-after-free on UP platforms
During stress testing with CONFIG_SMP disabled, KASAN reports as below:
==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __mutex_lock+0xe5/0xc30
Read of size 8 at addr ffff8881094223f8 by task stress/7789

The root cause is that erofs_workgroup_unfreeze() doesn’t reset to
orig_val thus it causes a race that the pcluster reuses unexpectedly
before freeing.
Since UP platforms are quite rare now, such path becomes unnecessary.
Let’s drop such specific-designed path directly instead.
