Subject[PATCH 00/10] workqueue: break affinity initiatively
Date
From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@linux.alibaba.com>

06249738a41a ("workqueue: Manually break affinity on hotplug")
said that scheduler will not force break affinity for us.

But workqueue highly depends on the old behavior. Many parts of the codes
relies on it, 06249738a41a ("workqueue: Manually break affinity on hotplug")
is not enough to change it, and the commit has flaws in itself too.

We need to thoroughly update the way workqueue handles affinity
in cpu hot[un]plug, what is this patchset intends to do and
replace the Valentin Schneider's patch [1].

Patch 1 fixes a flaw reported by Hillf Danton <hdanton@sina.com>.
I have to include this fix because later patches depends on it.

The patchset is based on tip/master rather than workqueue tree,
because the patchset is a complement for 06249738a41a ("workqueue:
Manually break affinity on hotplug") which is only in tip/master by now.
