From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c5404d4e6df6faba1007544b5f4e62c7c14416dd ] wq_adjust_max_active() needs to activate work items after max_active is increased. Previously, it did that by visiting each pwq once activating all that could be activated. While this makes sense with per-pwq nr_active, nr_active will be shared across multiple pwqs for unbound wqs. Then, we'd want to round-robin through pwqs to be fairer. In preparation, this patch makes wq_adjust_max_active() round-robin pwqs while activating. While the activation ordering changes, this shouldn't cause user-noticeable behavior changes.
