[PATCH 07/10 V4] workqueue: move idle_rebind pointer to gcwq

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Sat Sep 01 2012 - 14:00:42 EST


And this pointer helps other workers know the progress of idle-rebinding.
when gcwq->idle_rebind is not NULL, it means the idle-rebinding is still
in progress.

and idle_worker_rebind() is split.
