I wanted to make it consistent and disallow diddling wq worker
affinity from userland.  As those workers are shared and managed
dynamically, it didn't make sense to allow affinity manipulation.
That said, it might make sense allowing control over affinity of
unbound wq workers for things like cpu isolation.  Userspace doing
that per-worker doesn't make whole lot of sense.  Allowing putting
unbound workers automatically into a cpuset would work better, I
think.

Thanks.
