Sorry again.

Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] workqueue: allow the function of work_on_cpu() can
call work_on_cpu()

If the @fn call work_on_cpu() again, the lockdep will complain:

It is false-positive lockdep report. In this sutiation,
the two "wfc"s of the two work_on_cpu() are different,
they are both on stack. flush_work() can't be deadlock.

To fix this, we need to avoid the lockdep checking in this case,
But we don't want to change the flush_work(), so we use
completion instead of flush_work() in the work_on_cpu().
