workqueue: invert the order between pool->lock and wq_mayday_lock
Currently, pool->lock nests inside pool->lock. There's no inherent
reason for this order. The only place where the two locks are held
together is pool_mayday_timeout() and it just got decided that way.
This nesting order turns out to complicate things with the planned
rescuer_thread() update. Let's invert them. This doesn't cause any
behavior differences.
