insert_work() always tried to wake up a worker; however, the only time it
needs to try to wake up a worker is when a new active work item is queued.
When a work item goes on the inactive list or queueing a flush work item,
there's no reason to try to wake up a worker.
This patch moves the worker wakeup logic out of insert_work() and places it
in the active new work item queueing path in __queue_work().
While at it:
* __queue_work() is dereferencing pwq->pool repeatedly. Add local variable
pool.
* Every caller of insert_work() calls debug_work_activate(). Consolidate the
invocations into insert_work().
* In __queue_work() pool->watchdog_ts update is relocated slightly. This is
to better accommodate future changes.
This makes wakeups more precise and will help the planned change to assign
work items to workers before waking them up. No behavior changes intended.
v2: WARN_ON_ONCE(pool != last_pool) added in __queue_work() to clarify as
suggested by Lai.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
