Linus Torvalds 176bed1de5 vmstat: explicitly schedule per-cpu work on the CPU we need it to run on
The vmstat code uses "schedule_delayed_work_on()" to do the initial
startup of the delayed work on the right CPU, but then once it was
started it would use the non-cpu-specific "schedule_delayed_work()" to
re-schedule it on that CPU.

That just happened to schedule it on the same CPU historically (well, in
almost all situations), but the code _requires_ this work to be per-cpu,
and should say so explicitly rather than depend on the non-cpu-specific
scheduling to schedule on the current CPU.

The timer code is being changed to not be as single-minded in always
running things on the calling CPU.

See also commit 874bbfe600 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in
local cpu") that for now maintains the local CPU guarantees just in case
there are other broken users that depended on the accidental behavior.
