 *
 * A workitems is deferred work with these semantics:
 * - a workitem always runs in thread context.
 * - a workitem can be concurrent with other workitems but is strictly
 *   serialized with respect to itself.
 * - no CPU affinity, a workitem does not necessarily run on the same CPU
 *   that schedules it. However, this might change in the future.
 * - if a workitem is scheduled again before it has a chance to run, it
 *   runs only once.
 * - if a workitem is scheduled while it runs, it runs again after it
 *   completes; this ensures that events occurring while other events are
 *   being processed receive due attention. This behavior also allows a
 *   workitem to reschedule itself.
 *
 * Usage notes:
 * - a workitem can sleep but it should be aware of how that sleep might
 *   affect others.
 * - a workitem runs inside a kernel thread so there's no user space to access.
 * - do not use a workitem if the scheduling latency can't be tolerated.
 *
 * When wi_action returns non-zero, it means the workitem has either been
 * freed or reused and workitem scheduler won't touch it any more.
