[PATCH 15/21] workqueue: remove worker_maybe_bind_and_lock()

[Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>]

worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() is only used by rescuers.
but rescuer thread can fails when it do bind, so using
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() is enough.

-/**
- * worker_maybe_bind_and_lock - try to bind %current to worker_pool and lock it
- * @pool: target worker_pool
- *
- * Bind %current to the cpu of @pool if it is associated and lock @pool.
- *
- * Works which are scheduled while the cpu is online must at least be
- * scheduled to a worker which is bound to the cpu so that if they are
- * flushed from cpu callbacks while cpu is going down, they are
- * guaranteed to execute on the cpu.
- *
- * This function is to be used by unbound workers and rescuers to bind
- * themselves to the target cpu and may race with cpu going down or
- * coming online.  kthread_bind() can't be used because it may put the
- * worker to already dead cpu and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() can't be used
- * verbatim as it's best effort and blocking and pool may be
- * [dis]associated in the meantime.
- *
- * This function tries set_cpus_allowed() and locks pool and verifies the
- * binding against %POOL_DISASSOCIATED which is set during
- * %CPU_DOWN_PREPARE and cleared during %CPU_ONLINE, so if the worker
- * enters idle state or fetches works without dropping lock, it can
- * guarantee the scheduling requirement described in the first paragraph.
- *
- * CONTEXT:
- * Might sleep.  Called without any lock but returns with pool->lock
- * held.
- *
- * RETURNS:
- * %true if the associated pool is online (@worker is successfully
- * bound), %false if offline.
