Subject: [GIT PULL] workqueue changes for v4.2-rc1

Hello, Linus.

Most of the changes are around implementing and fixing fallouts from
sysfs and internal interface to limit the CPUs available to all
unbound workqueues to help isolating CPUs.  It needs more work as
ordered workqueues can roam unrestricted but still is a significant
improvement.

Thanks.
