cpuset: fix possible deadlock in async_rebuild_sched_domains

Lockdep reported some possible circular locking info when we tested cpuset on
NUMA/fake NUMA box.

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.29-rc1-00224-ga6525042 #111
-------------------------------------------------------
bash/2968 is trying to acquire lock:
 (events){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8024c8cd>] flush_work+0x24/0xd8

but task is already holding lock:
 (cgroup_mutex){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8026ad1e>] cgroup_lock_live_group+0x12/0x29

which lock already depends on the new lock.
......
-------------------------------------------------------

Steps to reproduce:
# mkdir /dev/cpuset
# mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset
# mkdir /dev/cpuset/0
# echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus
# echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems
# echo 1 > /dev/cpuset/0/memory_migrate
# cat /dev/zero > /dev/null &
# echo $! > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks

This is because async_rebuild_sched_domains has the following lock sequence:
run_workqueue(async_rebuild_sched_domains)
	-> do_rebuild_sched_domains -> cgroup_lock

But, attaching tasks when memory_migrate is set has following:
cgroup_lock_live_group(cgroup_tasks_write)
	-> do_migrate_pages -> flush_work

This patch fixes it by using a separate workqueue thread.
