Current wq_pool_mutex doesn't proctect the attrs-installation, it results
that ->unbound_attrs, ->numa_pwq_tbl[] and ->dfl_pwq can only be accessed
under wq->mutex and causes some inconveniences. Example, wq_update_unbound_numa()
has to acquire wq->mutex before fetching the wq->unbound_attrs->no_numa
and the old_pwq.
attrs-installation is a short operation, so this change will no cause any
latency for other operations which also acquire the wq_pool_mutex.
The only unprotected attrs-installation code is in apply_workqueue_attrs(),
so this patch touches code less than comments.
It is also a preparation patch for next several patches which read
wq->unbound_attrs, wq->numa_pwq_tbl[] and wq->dfl_pwq with
only wq_pool_mutex held.
