workqueue: Remove cpus_read_lock() from apply_wqattrs_lock()

1726a17135 ("workqueue: Put PWQ allocation and WQ enlistment in the same
lock C.S.") led to the following possible deadlock:

  WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
  6.10.0-rc5-00004-g1d4c6111406c #1 Not tainted
   --------------------------------------------
   swapper/0/1 is trying to acquire lock:

   but task is already holding lock:

This is caused by pcrypt allocating a workqueue while holding
cpus_read_lock(), so workqueue code can't do it again as that can lead to
deadlocks if down_write starts after the first down_read.

The pwq creations and installations have been reworked based on
wq_online_cpumask rather than cpu_online_mask making cpus_read_lock() is
unneeded during wqattrs changes. Fix the deadlock by removing
cpus_read_lock() from apply_wqattrs_lock().

tj: Updated changelog.
