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
