OK for me.

Patch 5:  -4
Patch 6:  -9		Patch 5,6 simplify idle rebind(benefit from Patch 2)
Patch 7:  +31
Patch 8:  +14		Patch 7,8 make busy worker wait idle worker's rebinding
Patch 9:  -7
Patch 10: -13		Patch 9,10 single pass

total:  +11		single pass allows us clean up more, example narrow the critical
			critical section of manage_mutex. I will add it in next round.
