kthread: unpark only parked kthread

Browse source 
commit 214e01ad4ed7158cab66498810094fac5d09b218 upstream.

Calling into kthread unparking unconditionally is mostly harmless when
the kthread is already unparked. The wake up is then simply ignored
because the target is not in TASK_PARKED state.

However if the kthread is per CPU, the wake up is preceded by a call
to kthread_bind() which expects the task to be inactive and in
TASK_PARKED state, which obviously isn't the case if it is unparked.

As a result, calling kthread_stop() on an unparked per-cpu kthread
triggers such a warning:

Fix this with skipping unecessary unparking while stopping a kthread.
