[PATCH wq#fixes-2.6.38] workqueue: make sure MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is at least 2 jiffies long

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is defined as HZ / 100 and depending on
configuration may end up 0 or 1.  Even when it's 1, depending on when
the mayday timer is added in the current jiffy interval, it may expire
way before a jiffy has passed.

Make sure MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is at least two to guarantee that at
least a full jiffy has passed before calling rescuers.
