Subject[PATCH 1/5] x86: Move fork_idle from wq and idle caching to common code
Date
As a part of cleanup suggested by Ingo here

* move smpboot wq stuff to common code.
* move idle task caching to common code and use the existing percpu
idle_task() as cache, instead of another percpu var or NR_CPUs array.

These can be shared across archs.

Should not have any functionality impact.
