Subject: [PATCH wq/for-3.9] workqueue: make get_work_pool_id() cheaper

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...fujitsu.com>

get_work_pool_id() currently first obtains pool using get_work_pool()
and then return pool->id.  For an off-queue work item, this involves
obtaining pool ID from worker->data, performing idr_find() to find the
matching pool and then returning its pool->id which of course is the
same as the one which went into idr_find().

Just open code WORK_STRUCT_CWQ case and directly return pool ID from
work->data.

tj: The original patch dropped on-queue work item handling and renamed
    the function to offq_work_pool_id().  There isn't much benefit in
    doing so.  Handling it only requires a single if() and we need at
    least BUG_ON(), which is also a branch, even if we drop on-queue
    handling.  Open code WORK_STRUCT_CWQ case and keep the function in
    line with get_work_pool().  Rewrote the description.
