[PATCH 5/7] workqueue, use default pwq when fail to allocate node pwd

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Wed Apr 03 2013 - 22:07:39 EST


When we fail to allocate the node pwq, we can use the default pwq
for the node.

Thus we can avoid failure after allocated default pwq, and remove
some code for failure path.
