Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: add __WQ_FREEZING and remove POOL_FREEZING

freezing is nothing related to pools, but POOL_FREEZING adds a connection,
and causes freeze_workqueues_begin() and thaw_workqueues() complicated.

Since freezing is workqueue instance attribute, so we introduce __WQ_FREEZING
to wq->flags instead and remove POOL_FREEZING.

we set __WQ_FREEZING only when freezable(to simplify pwq_adjust_max_active()),
make freeze_workqueues_begin() and thaw_workqueues() fast skip non-freezable wq.

Changed from previous patches(requested by tj):
	1) added the WARN_ON_ONCE() back
	2) merged the two patches as one
