workqueue: Changes for v6.19
- Rescuer affinity management: Affinity now updated only when detached using
wq_unbound_cpumask consistently. DISASSOCIATED workers also follow unbound
cpumask changes to avoid breaking CPU isolation.
- Rescuer cleanups preparing for fetching work items one by one from pool list:
Work assignment factored out, optimized to skip pwqs no longer needing
rescue, and shutdown logic simplified.
- Unused assert_rcu_or_wq_mutex_or_pool_mutex() removed.
workqueue: Don't rely on wq->rescuer to stop rescuer
The commit1 def98c84b6cd ("workqueue: Fix spurious sanity check failures
in destroy_workqueue()") tries to fix spurious sanity check failures by
stopping send_mayday() via setting wq->rescuer to NULL.
But it fails to stop the pwq->mayday_node requeuing in the rescuer, and
the commit2 e66b39af00f4 ("workqueue: Fix pwq ref leak in
rescuer_thread()") fixes it by checking wq->rescuer which is the result
of commit1.
Both commits together really fix spurious sanity check failures caused
by the rescuer, but they both use a convoluted method by relying on
wq->rescuer state rather than the real count of work items.
Actually __WQ_DESTROYING and drain_workqueue() together already stop
send_mayday() by draining all the work items and ensuring no new work
item requeuing.
And the more proper fix to stop the pwq->mayday_node requeuing in the
rescuer is from commit3 4f3f4cf388f8 ("workqueue: avoid unneeded
requeuing the pwq in rescuer thread") and renders the checking of
wq->rescuer in commit2 unnecessary.
So __WQ_DESTROYING, drain_workqueue() and commit3 together fix spurious
sanity check failures introduced by the rescuer.
Just remove the convoluted code of using wq->rescuer.
