workqueue: fix how cpu number is stored in work->data
Once a work starts execution, its data contains the cpu number it was on instead of pointing to cwq. This is added by commit 7a22ad75 (workqueue: carry cpu number in work data once execution starts) to reliably determine the work was last on even if the workqueue itself was destroyed inbetween. Whether data points to a cwq or contains a cpu number was distinguished by comparing the value against PAGE_OFFSET. The assumption was that a cpu number should be below PAGE_OFFSET while a pointer to cwq should be above it. However, on architectures which use separate address spaces for user and kernel spaces, this doesn't hold as PAGE_OFFSET is zero. Fix it by using an explicit flag, WORK_STRUCT_CWQ, to mark what the data field contains. If the flag is set, it's pointing to a cwq; otherwise, it contains a cpu number. Reported on s390 and microblaze during linux-next testing.
