Don't need the undef here anymore as the #define is in the header
file and not local to the function.

Can't say I'm a great fan of this - making the workqueue code use
kstrdup() would be a much better better solution, IMO, just like was
done a while for the SLAB cache names to solve exactly the same
problem....
