Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "Workqueue fixes for v4.5-rc3.

   - Remove a spurious triggering of flush dependency warning.

   - Officially break local execution guarantee of unbound work items
     and add a debug feature to flush out usages which depend on it.

   - Work around CPU -> NODE mapping becoming invalid on CPU offline.

  The branch is young but pushing out early as stable kernels are being
  affected"

* 'for-4.5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
  workqueue: handle NUMA_NO_NODE for unbound pool_workqueue lookup
  workqueue: implement "workqueue.debug_force_rr_cpu" debug feature
  workqueue: schedule WORK_CPU_UNBOUND work on wq_unbound_cpumask CPUs
  Revert "workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu"
  workqueue: skip flush dependency checks for legacy workqueues

workqueue.debug_force_rr_cpu
Workqueue used to implicitly guarantee that work
items queued without explicit CPU specified are put
on the local CPU. This guarantee is no longer true
and while local CPU is still preferred work items
may be put on foreign CPUs. This debug option
forces round-robin CPU selection to flush out
usages which depend on the now broken guarantee.
When enabled, memory and cache locality will be
impacted.

Workqueue used to implicitly guarantee that work items queued
without explicit CPU specified are put on the local CPU. This
guarantee is no longer true and while local CPU is still
preferred work items may be put on foreign CPUs. Kernel
parameter "workqueue.debug_force_rr_cpu" is added to force
round-robin CPU selection to flush out usages which depend on the

feature by default. When enabled, memory and cache locality will
be impacted.
