Add a new btrfs_workqueue_struct which use kernel workqueue to implement
most of the original btrfs_workers, to replace btrfs_workers.

With this patchset, redundant workqueue codes are replaced with kernel
workqueue infrastructure, which not only reduces the code size but also the
effort to maintain it.

More performace tests are ongoing, the result from sysbench shows minor
improvement on the following server:
CPU: two-way Xeon X5660
RAM: 4G 
HDD: SAS HDD, 150G total, 40G partition for btrfs test

Test result:
Mode|Num_threads|block size|extra flags|performance change vs 3.11 kernel
rndrd	1	4K	none		+1.22%
rndrd	1	32K	none		+1.00%
rndrd	8	32K	sync		+1.35%
seqrd	8	4K	direct		+5.56%
seqwr	8	4K	none		-1.26%
seqwr	8	32K	sync		+1.20%

Changes below 1% are not mentioned.
Overall the patchset doesn't change the performance on HDD.

Since more tests are needed, more test result are welcomed.

------
Changelog:
v1->v2:
  - Fix some workqueue flags.
v2->v3:
  - Add the thresholding mechanism to simulate the old behavior
  - Convert all the btrfs_workers to btrfs_workrqueue_struct.
  - Fix some potential deadlock when executed in IRQ handler.
