Subject: [PATCH 08/10] workqueue: assign overflowed flushers's flush color when queued
Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2012 18:07:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1348481238-6138-9-git-send-email-laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1348481238-6138-1-git-send-email-laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>

wq->work_color is unchanged between overflowed flusher queued on
 ->flusher_overflow and requeued on ->flusher_queue.

So we can assign overflowed flushers's flush color when they are queued
on ->flusher_overflow.

This patch makes the flusher's flush color more clear:
	flusher's flush color is the work color of the WQ
	when flush_workqueue() starts.

Remove an unneeded loop.

This patch doesn't make any functional difference.
