workqueue: fix texinfodocs warning for WQ_* flags reference (2025-09-22 05:37:20 -1000)
----------------------------------------------------------------
workqueue: Changes for v6.18
- WQ_PERCPU was added to remaining alloc_workqueue() users and system_wq
usage was replaced with system_percpu_wq and system_unbound_wq with
system_dfl_wq. These are equivalent conversions with no functional changes,
preparing for switching default to unbound workqueues from percpu.
- A handshake mechanism was added for canceling BH workers to avoid live
lock scenarios under PREEMPT_RT.
- Unnecessary rcu_read_lock/unlock() calls were dropped in
wq_watchdog_timer_fn() and workqueue_congested().
- Documentation was fixed to resolve texinfodocs warnings.
