[PATCH v3 6/6] workqueue: use system_highpri_wq for unbind_work

From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Wed Aug 15 2012 - 10:27:05 EST


To speed cpu down processing up, use system_highpri_wq.
As scheduling priority of workers on it is higher than system_wq and
it is not contended by other normal works on this cpu, work on it
is processed faster than system_wq.
