workqueue: use mutex for global_cwq manager exclusion
POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS is used to ensure that at most one worker takes the manager role at any given time on a given global_cwq. Trustee later hitched on it to assume manager adding blocking wait for the bit. As trustee already needed a custom wait mechanism, waiting for MANAGING_WORKERS was rolled into the same mechanism. Trustee is scheduled to be removed. This patch separates out MANAGING_WORKERS wait into per-pool mutex. Workers use mutex_trylock() to test for manager role and trustee uses mutex_lock() to claim manager roles. gcwq_claim/release_management() helpers are added to grab and release manager roles of all pools on a global_cwq. gcwq_claim_management() always grabs pool manager mutexes in ascending pool index order and uses pool index as lockdep subclass.
