[PATCH V5 0/3] workqueue: Factor the way to assign rescuer work

[Lai Jiangshan]

From: Lai Jiangshan <jiangshan.ljs@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Previously, the rescuer scanned for all matching work items at once and
processed them within a single rescuer thread, which could cause one
blocking work item to stall all others.

Make the rescuer process work items one-by-one instead of slurping all
matches in a single pass using a cursor.

Changed from V4:

  Control the limit and call send_mayday() in rescuer_thread(), which
  makes rescuer_thread() responsible for ensuring the cursor is not left
  behind.

v4: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251125063617.671199-1-jiangshanlai@xxxxxxxxx/

Lai Jiangshan (3):
  workqueue: Refactor send_mayday() to take pwq directly
  workqueue: Process rescuer work items one-by-one using a cursor
  workqueue: Process extra works in rescuer on memory pressure
