workqueue: ensure attrs changes are properly synchronized
Current modification to attrs via sysfs is not fully synchronized. Process A (change cpumask) | Process B (change numa affinity) wq_cpumask_store() | wq_sysfs_prep_attrs() | | apply_workqueue_attrs() apply_workqueue_attrs() | It results that the Process B's operation is totally reverted without any notification, it is a buggy behavior. So this patch moves wq_sysfs_prep_attrs() into the protection under wq_pool_mutex to ensure attrs changes are properly synchronized.
