[PATCH 1/3] make queue_delayed_work() friendly to flush_fork()

[Oleg Nesterov]

Currently typeof(delayed_work->work.data) is

	"struct workqueue_struct" when the timer is pending

	"struct cpu_workqueue_struct" whe the work is queued

This makes impossible to use flush_fork(delayed_work->work) in addition
to cancel_delayed_work/cancel_rearming_delayed_work, not good.

Change queue_delayed_work/delayed_work_timer_fn to use cwq, not wq. This
complicates (and uglifies) these functions a little bit, but alows us to
use flush_fork(dwork) and imho makes the whole code more consistent.

Also, document the fact that cancel_rearming_delayed_work() doesn't garantee
the completion of work->func() upon return.
