Subject: Revert "workqueue: Don't call cpumask_test_cpu() with -1 CPU in wq_update_node_max_active()"
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This reverts commit 9fc557d489f8163c1aabcb89114b8eba960f4097 which is commit
15930da42f8981dc42c19038042947b475b19f47 upstream.
The workqueue patches backported to 6.8.y caused some reported
regressions, so revert them for now.
