[PATCH] fix workqueue oops during cpu offline

Browse source 
Use first_cpu(cpu_possible_map) for the single-thread workqueue case.  We
used to hardcode 0, but that broke on systems where !cpu_possible(0) when
workqueue_struct->cpu_workqueue_struct was changed from a static array to
alloc_percpu.

Commit id bce61dd49d ("Fix hardcoded cpu=0 in
workqueue for per_cpu_ptr() calls") fixed that for Ben's funky sparc64
system, but it regressed my Power5.  Offlining cpu 0 oopses upon the next
call to queue_work for a single-thread workqueue, because now we try to
manipulate per_cpu_ptr(wq->cpu_wq, 1), which is uninitialized.

So we need to establish an unchanging "slot" for single-thread workqueues
which will have a valid percpu allocation.  Since alloc_percpu keys off of
cpu_possible_map, which must not change after initialization, make this
slot == first_cpu(cpu_possible_map).
