workqueue: Make per-cpu pool_workqueues allocated and released like unbound ones
Currently, all per-cpu pwq's (pool_workqueue's) are allocated directly
through a per-cpu allocation and thus, unlike unbound workqueues, not
reference counted. This difference in lifetime management between the two
types is a bit confusing.
Unbound workqueues are currently accessed through wq->numa_pwq_tbl[] which
isn't suitiable for the planned CPU locality related improvements. The plan
is to unify pwq handling across per-cpu and unbound workqueues so that
they're always accessed through wq->cpu_pwq.
In preparation, this patch makes per-cpu pwq's to be allocated, reference
counted and released the same way as unbound pwq's. wq->cpu_pwq now holds
pointers to pwq's instead of containing them directly.
pwq_unbound_release_workfn() is renamed to pwq_release_workfn() as it's now
also used for per-cpu work items.
