I actually meant to add WQ_PERCPU, which should be the default for
WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT, in order to avoid the warning below.

But I somehow managed to fix it the wrong way around and made WQ_UNBOUND the
default.

So, this should just be bindings::wq_flags_WQ_PERCPU |
bindings::wq_flags_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT.
