Ah, right.  I was hoping to avoid doing pwq swaps on CPU hot[un]plugs
doing everything on possible mask.  Looks like we'll need some
massaging after all.

We're still only at -rc4 meaning we still have plenty of time to
resolve whatever issues which come up, so I think I'm still gonna
target 3.10.

It isn't that complex, is it?  I mean, the difficult part - using
multiple pwqs on unbound wq - already happened, and even that wasn't
too complex as it in most part synchronized the behaviors between
per-cpu and unbound workqueues.  All that NUMA support is doing is
mapping different pwqs to different issuing CPUs.

Thanks.
