workqueue: remove CPU offline trustee With the previous changes, a disassociated global_cwq now can run as an unbound one on its own - it can create workers as necessary to drain remaining works after the CPU has been brought down and manage the number of workers using the usual idle timer mechanism making trustee completely redundant except for the actual unbinding operation. This patch removes the trustee and let a disassociated global_cwq manage itself. Unbinding is moved to a work item (for CPU affinity) which is scheduled and flushed from CPU_DONW_PREPARE. This patch moves nr_running clearing outside gcwq and manager locks to simplify the code. As nr_running is unused at the point, this is safe.
