Subject: [PATCH 4/4] async: replace list of active domains with global list
 of pending items

>From 0e18802ed054fc97026973e94a58f0b9beb1b294 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org>

Global synchronization - async_synchronize_full() - is currently
implemented by keeping a list of all active registered domains and
syncing them one by one until no domain is active.

While this isn't necessarily a complex scheme, it can easily be
simplified by keeping global list of the pending items of all
registered active domains instead of list of domains and simply using
the globl pending list the same way as domain syncing.

This patch replaces async_domains with async_global_pending and update
lowest_in_progress() to use the global pending list if @domain is
%NULL.  async_synchronize_full_domain(NULL) is now allowed and
equivalent to async_synchronize_full().  As no one is calling with
NULL domain, this doesn't affect any existing users.

async_register_mutex is no longer necessary and dropped.
