Thomas Tuttle d5b1a08d0d workqueue: lock cwq access in drain_workqueue
commit fa2563e41c3d6d6e8af437643981ed28ae0cb56d upstream.

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.
