Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: keep unbound rescuer's cpumask to be default cpumask
From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...ux.alibaba.com>
When we attach a rescuer to a pool, we will set the rescuer's cpumask
to the pool's cpumask. If there is hotplug ongoing, it may cause
the rescuer running on the dying CPU and cause bug or it may cause
warning of setting online&!active cpumask.
So we have to find a reliable way to set cpumask when attaching
rescuer.
When the pool is percpu pool, we have easy way to reliably
set cpumask with the help of %POOL_DISASSOCIATED.
But when it is unbound rescuer, the problem becomes harder, because
we can't neither use get_online_cpus() here nor test cpu_active_mask
without synchronization.
Atfer investigation, and noticing the unbound nature of the unbound
rescuer, we decide to make it use the wq's default pwq's cpumask so
that we don't need to set the rescuer's cpumask when attaching.
To implement it, we have to set unbound rescuer's cpumask to the
default pwq's cpumask when creation and maintain it when hotplug
or the default pwq is changed.

NOTE:
this patch is designed to be a complement of Peter's
patchset https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210112144344.850850975@infradead.org/
where it has a problem dealing with rescuer.
