Subject: [patch] workqueue: fix schedule_on_each_cpu()

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>
Subject: [patch] workqueue: fix schedule_on_each_cpu()

fix the schedule_on_each_cpu() implementation: __queue_work() is now
stricter, hence set the work-pending bit before passing in the new work.

(found in the -rt tree, using Peter Zijlstra's files-lock scalability
patchset)
