Manager operations are currently governed by two mutexes - pool->manager_arb and ->assoc_mutex. The former is used to decide who gets to be the manager and the latter to exclude the actual manager operations including creation and destruction of workers. Anyone who grabs ->manager_arb must perform manager role; otherwise, the pool might stall. Grabbing ->assoc_mutex blocks everyone else from performing manager operations but doesn't require the holder to perform manager duties as it's merely blocking manager operations without becoming the manager. Because the blocking was necessary when [dis]associating per-cpu workqueues during CPU hotplug events, the latter was named assoc_mutex. The mutex is scheduled to be used for other purposes, so this patch gives it a more fitting generic name - manager_mutex - and updates / adds comments to explain synchronization around the manager role and operations. This patch is pure rename / doc update. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
