[PATCH v3] workqueue: lock cwq access in drain_workqueue

[Thomas Tuttle <ttuttle@chromium.org>]

Take cwq->gcwq->lock to avoid racing between drain_workqueue checking
to make sure the workqueues are empty and cwq_dec_nr_in_flight
decrementing and then incrementing nr_active when it activates a
delayed work.

We discovered this when a corner case in one of our drivers resulted in
us trying to destroy a workqueue in which the remaining work would
always requeue itself again in the same workqueue.  We would hit this
race condition and trip the BUG_ON on workqueue.c:3080.
