Subject: [GIT PULL] workqueue changes for v4.10-rc1

Hello,

Mostly patches to initialize workqueue subsystem earlier and get rid
of keventd_up().  The patches were headed for the last merge cycle but
got delayed due to a bug found late minute, which is fixed now.  Also,
to help debugging, destroy_workqueue() is more chatty now on a sanity
check failure.

Thanks.
