Are you sure?
@lcpu is only used when it tries to set cwq to work data without
breaking nrt logic.

void delayed_work_timer_fn(unsigned long __data)
{
struct delayed_work *dwork = (struct delayed_work *)__data;
struct cpu_workqueue_struct *cwq = get_work_cwq(&dwork->work);

/* should have been called from irqsafe timer with irq already off */
__queue_work(dwork->cpu, cwq->wq, &dwork->work);
}
