Subject: [PATCH 3/8] stop_machine: make cpu_stop_queue_work() and
	stop_one_cpu_nowait() return bool

Change cpu_stop_queue_work() to return true if the work was queued and
change stop_one_cpu_nowait() to return the result of cpu_stop_queue_work().
This makes it more useful, for example now you can alloc cpu_stop_work for
stop_one_cpu_nowait() and free it in the callback or if stop_one_cpu_nowait()
fails, currently this is impossible because you can't know if @fn will be
called or not.

Also, this allows to kill cpu_stop_done->executed, see the next changes.
