Subject: [PATCH 14/21] workqueue: add wq->freezing and remove POOL_FREEZING

freezing is nothing related to pools, but POOL_FREEZING adds a connection.
it causes:
	workqueue_freezing is protected by both wqs_mutex and pools_mutex.
	freeze_workqueues_begin() and thaw_workqueues() are very complicated.

Since freezing is workqueue instance attribute, so we introduce wq->freezing
instead and remove POOL_FREEZING. all the problem are solved.
