[PATCH] Use alloc_percpu to allocate workqueues locally
This patch makes the workqueus use alloc_percpu instead of an array. The workqueues are placed on nodes local to each processor. The workqueue structure can grow to a significant size on a system with lots of processors if this patch is not applied. 64 bit architectures with all debugging features enabled and configured for 512 processors will not be able to boot without this patch.
