Rescuers are created when a workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM is allocated. It typically happens during the system boot. systemd switches the root filesystem from initrd to the booted system during boot. It kills processes that block the switch for too long. One of the process might be modprobe that tries to create a workqueue. These problems are hard to reproduce. Also alloc_workqueue() does not pass the error code. Make the debugging easier by printing an error, similar to create_worker().

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.
