workqueue: fix deadlock in worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() ...
If a rescuer and stop_machine() bringing down a CPU race with each
other, they may deadlock on non-preemptive kernel. The CPU won't
accept a new task, so the rescuer can't migrate to the target CPU,
while stop_machine() can't proceed because the rescuer is holding one
of the CPU retrying migration. GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is never cleared
and worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() retries indefinitely.
This problem can be reproduced semi reliably while the system is
entering suspend.

A lot of kudos to Thilo-Alexander for reporting this tricky issue and
painstaking testing.
stable: This affects all kernels with cmwq, so all kernels since and
including v2.6.36 need this fix.
