[PATCH 4/4] sched: add hooks for workqueue

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

Concurrency managed workqueue needs to know when workers are going to
sleep and waking up, and, when a worker goes to sleep, be able to wake
up another worker to maintain adequate concurrency.  This patch
introduces PF_WQ_WORKER to identify workqueue workers and adds the
following two hooks.

* wq_worker_waking_up(): called when a worker is woken up.

* wq_worker_sleeping(): called when a worker is going to sleep and may
  return a pointer to a local task which should be woken up.  The
  returned task is woken up using try_to_wake_up_local() which is
  simplified ttwu which is called under rq lock and can only wake up
  local tasks.

Both hooks are currently defined as noop in kernel/workqueue_sched.h.
Later cmwq implementation will replace them with proper
implementation.

These hooks are hard coded as they'll always be enabled.
