Merge branch 'for-3.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq
Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
"There are three major changes.
- WQ_HIGHPRI has been reimplemented so that high priority work items
are served by worker threads with -20 nice value from dedicated
highpri worker pools.
- CPU hotplug support has been reimplemented such that idle workers
are kept across CPU hotplug events. This makes CPU hotplug cheaper
(for PM) and makes the code simpler.
- flush_kthread_work() has been reimplemented so that a work item can
be freed while executing. This removes an annoying behavior
difference between kthread_worker and workqueue."
* 'for-3.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
workqueue: fix spurious CPU locality WARN from process_one_work()
kthread_worker: reimplement flush_kthread_work() to allow freeing the work item being executed
kthread_worker: reorganize to prepare for flush_kthread_work() reimplementation
workqueue: simplify CPU hotplug code
workqueue: remove CPU offline trustee
workqueue: don't butcher idle workers on an offline CPU
workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle workers
workqueue: drop @bind from create_worker()
workqueue: use mutex for global_cwq manager exclusion
workqueue: ROGUE workers are UNBOUND workers
workqueue: drop CPU_DYING notifier operation
workqueue: perform cpu down operations from low priority cpu_notifier()
workqueue: reimplement WQ_HIGHPRI using a separate worker_pool
workqueue: introduce NR_WORKER_POOLS and for_each_worker_pool()
workqueue: separate out worker_pool flags
workqueue: use @pool instead of @gcwq or @cpu where applicable
workqueue: factor out worker_pool from global_cwq
workqueue: don't use WQ_HIGHPRI for unbound workqueues
