workqueue: protect wq->pwqs and iteration with wq->mutex
We're expanding wq->mutex to cover all fields specific to each workqueue with the end goal of replacing pwq_lock which will make locking simpler and easier to understand. init_and_link_pwq() and pwq_unbound_release_workfn() already grab wq->mutex when adding or removing a pwq from wq->pwqs list. This patch makes it official that the list is wq->mutex protected for writes and updates readers accoridingly. Explicit IRQ toggles for sched-RCU read-locking in flush_workqueue_prep_pwqs() and drain_workqueues() are removed as the surrounding wq->mutex can provide sufficient synchronization. Also, assert_rcu_or_pwq_lock() is renamed to assert_rcu_or_wq_mutex() and checks for wq->mutex too. pwq_lock locking and assertion are not removed by this patch and a couple of for_each_pwq() iterations are still protected by it. They'll be removed by future patches. tj: Rebased on top of the current dev branch. Updated description. Folded in assert_rcu_or_wq_mutex() renaming from a later patch along with associated comment updates. Signed-off-by: NLai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
