Yeah, it's gonna be killed. The commit is there because the behavior
change broke things. We don't want to guarantee it but have been and
can't change it right away just because we don't like it when things
may break from it. The plan is to implement a debug option to force
workqueue to always execute these work items on a foreign cpu to weed
out breakages.
Thanks.
