  fscache: fix build on !CONFIG_SYSCTL
  slow-work: kill it
  gfs2: use workqueue instead of slow-work
  drm: use workqueue instead of slow-work
  cifs: use workqueue instead of slow-work
  fscache: drop references to slow-work
  fscache: convert operation to use workqueue instead of slow-work
  fscache: convert object to use workqueue instead of slow-work
  workqueue: fix how cpu number is stored in work->data
  workqueue: fix mayday_mask handling on UP
  workqueue: fix build problem on !CONFIG_SMP
  workqueue: fix locking in retry path of maybe_create_worker()
  async: use workqueue for worker pool
  workqueue: remove WQ_SINGLE_CPU and use WQ_UNBOUND instead
  workqueue: implement unbound workqueue
  workqueue: prepare for WQ_UNBOUND implementation
  libata: take advantage of cmwq and remove concurrency limitations
  workqueue: fix worker management invocation without pending works
  ...

Fixed up conflicts in fs/cifs/* as per Tejun. Other trivial conflicts in
include/linux/workqueue.h, kernel/trace/Kconfig and kernel/workqueue.c
