Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: alloc struct worker on its local node

When the create_worker() is called from non-manager, the struct worker
is allocated from the node of the caller which may be different from the
node of pool->node.

So we add a node ID argument for the alloc_worker() to ensure the
struct worker is allocated from the preferable node.
