Subject: [PATCH 17/19] workqueue: introduce worker
Separate out worker thread related information to struct worker from
struct cpu_workqueue_struct and implement helper functions to deal
with the new struct worker. The only change which is visible outside
is that now workqueue worker are all named "kworker/CPUID:WORKERID"
where WORKERID is allocated from per-cpu ida.
This is in preparation of concurrency managed workqueue where shared
multiple workers would be available per cpu.
