An error\nclaimed via scx_bpf_error_bstr() from an associated BPF program in that\nwindow is consumed by scx_disable_workfn(), which takes the pre-enable\nshortcut in scx_root_disable(). The shortcut returns without any teardown\nand restores SCX_DISABLED with an unconditional scx_set_enable_state() xchg\nracing the enable workfn\u0027s own transition. The enable then completes with\nthe claim consumed: the scheduler stays up but can never be disabled again,\nand bpf_scx_unreg() frees it while still in use, resulting in a\nuse-after-free. Both WARN_ON_ONCE()s fire back to back:\n\n  WARNING: kernel/sched/ext/ext.c:7522 at\n  scx_root_enable_workfn+0xeec/0x1be0, CPU#3: scx_enable_help/276\n\n  WARNING: kernel/sched/ext/ext.c:6398 at scx_root_disable+0xb50/0xdb8,\n  CPU#0: sched_ext_helpe/664\n\nscx_root_enable_workfn() switches to SCX_ENABLING before the scheduler\nallocation, so ops-\u003epriv is never visible while SCX_DISABLED.
