Subject: [PATCH 0/6] padata cleanups

These cleanups save ~5% of the padata text/data and make it a little
easier to use and develop going forward.

In particular, they pave the way to extend padata's multithreading support to
VFIO, a work-in-progress version of which can be found here:

    https://oss.oracle.com/git/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-dmjordan.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/padata-mt-wip-v0.5

Based on v5.8-rc5.  As always, feedback is welcome.

Daniel
