Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:

 - When per-cpu workqueue workers expire after sitting idle for too
   long, they used to wake up to the CPU that they're bound to in order
   to exit. This unfortunately could cause unwanted disturbances on CPUs
   isolated for e.g. RT applications.

   The worker exit path is restructured so that an existing worker is
   unbound from its CPU before being woken up for the last time,
   allowing it to migrate away from an isolated CPU for exiting.

 - A couple debug improvements. Watchdog dump is made more compact and
   workqueue now warns if used-after-free during the RCU grace period
   after destroy_workqueue().
