Merge tag 'wq-for-7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:

 - Continued progress toward making alloc_workqueue() unbound by
   default: more callers converted to WQ_PERCPU / system_percpu_wq /
   system_dfl_wq, and new warnings for queues that use neither WQ_PERCPU
   nor WQ_UNBOUND or the legacy system_wq / system_unbound_wq.

 - Misc: drop the now-trivial apply_wqattrs_lock()/unlock() wrappers,
   forbid the TEST_WORKQUEUE benchmark from being built-in, and fix a
   spurious pointer level in the worker debug-dump path.

help
This builds the "test_workqueue" module for benchmarking
workqueue throughput under contention. Useful for evaluating
affinity scope changes (e.g., cache_shard vs cache).
The test drives sysfs to switch affinity scopes, so it must be
loaded after userspace has mounted sysfs; building it in (=y)
would run module_init before /sys is available.
If unsure, say N.
