workqueue: fix deadlock in worker_maybe_bind_and_lock()

workqueue: fix deadlock in worker_maybe_bind_and_lock()

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/780546

commit 5035b20fa5cd146b66f5f89619c20a4177fb736d upstream.

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.
