Subject[RFC][PATCH 2/3] sched, workqueue: Move WQ-sleeper wakeup
While Thomas was annoyed with the block bits, he found no reason for the WQ
bits to be as they are, the signal thing can only avoid a wakeup, extra wakeups
for the WQ bits increase concurrency (in as far as signals are relevant to
kthreads at all).

Moving the WQ bits allow us to do away with try_to_wake_up_local, removing
more lines.
