+ * enable_and_queue_work - Enable and queue a work item on a specific workqueue
+ * @wq: The target workqueue
+ * @work: The work item to be enabled and queued
+ *
+ * This function combines the operations of enable_work() and queue_work(),
+ * providing a convenient way to enable and queue a work item in a single call.
+ * It invokes enable_work() on @work and then queues it if the disable depth
+ * reached 0. Returns %true if the disable depth reached 0 and @work is queued,
+ * and %false otherwise.
+ *
+ * Note that @work is always queued when disable depth reaches zero. If the
+ * desired behavior is queueing only if certain events took place while @work is
+ * disabled, the user should implement the necessary state tracking and perform
+ * explicit conditional queueing after enable_work().
