Subject: [PATCH v2 15/17] workqueue: remove global_cwq
global_cwq is now nothing but a container for per-cpu standard
worker_pools. Declare the worker pools directly as
cpu/unbound_std_worker_pools[] and remove global_cwq.
* ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp moved from global_cwq to worker_pool.
This probably would have made sense even before this change as we
want each pool to be aligned.
* get_gcwq() is replaced with std_worker_pools() which returns the
pointer to the standard pool array for a given CPU.
* __alloc_workqueue_key() updated to use get_std_worker_pool() instead
of open-coding pool determination.
This is part of an effort to remove global_cwq and make worker_pool
the top level abstraction, which in turn will help implementing worker
pools with user-specified attributes.
v2: Joonsoo pointed out that it'd better to align struct worker_pool
rather than the array so that every pool is aligned.

Rebased on top of the current wq/for-3.9 and Joonsoo's comments
applied.
Thanks.
