workqueue: move rescuer pool detachment to the end
In 51697d393922 ("workqueue: use generic attach/detach routine for rescuers"), The rescuer detaches itself from the pool before put_pwq() so that the put_unbound_pool() will not destroy the rescuer-attached pool. It is unnecessary. worker_detach_from_pool() can be used as the last statement to access to the pool just like the regular workers, put_unbound_pool() will wait for it to detach and then free the pool. So we move the worker_detach_from_pool() down, make it coincide with the regular workers. tj: Minor description update.
